The best bad romantic relationships on screen

Whitewinged

The relationship between Ginger and Ace in Casino was really good or I mean bad!

When we first see her in the movie, she seems really confident and who can forget the scene where Ace first notices her in the casino and she throws all the chips in the air. I think Ace really loved her but she only married him for money and they end up really unhappy with her having an affair with Nicky and her inability to let go of her waster ex boyfriend and obsession with money.

The War of the Roses was another great one and the chemistry between Michael Douglas and Kathleen Turner is very realistic. They start to resent each other as the years go on in their marriage. There are some very funny, sad and soft parts in that movie and I think it was the movie that The Break Up wanted to be.

Scarlet O'Hara and Rhett Butler in Gone With The Wind are another one I like and I suppose you could say Kathy Bates and James Caan in Misery although that love or romance was all in her head and completely unrequited.

Anyone any other favourite bad romantic relationships in movies?

The turbulent three-way relationship between Tommy, Mark and Lisa in 'The Room' is a triumph of film-making. Never before has such raw passion seeped out from the celluloid and under the skin of the audience.
