"Pride and Prejudice", the Kiera Knightley version, literally makes me swoon. The part where Darcy declares his love for her, I have to rewind the scene and watch it twice because I'm fainting the first time.
"Sense and Sensibility" with Kate Winslet, Emma Thompson and Hugh Grant is also great. Jane Austen was amazingly ahead of her time in sorting out romantic perils and personalities - in P&P and S&S.
"When Harry Met Sally" is my all-time favorite movie, but its a romantic comedy, not like a star-crossed lover type of movie. But it translates into everyday life and my friends and I have never stopped quoting it since we saw it in the theater.
"Shakespeare in Love" is great secret-romance passion movie.
"The Bridges of Madison County" - Meryl Streep being amazing, as usual. You so want her to get out of the car! (If you saw it you know what I'm talking about)
Also, I just saw "Out of Africa" with Meryl Streep and Robert Redford and that was another really good love story.
The Holiday was really good, too. Great romantic comedy.
