    A Streetcar named Desire is a love story. It's not a positive or healthy love, but it's definitely a love story.

    Clarence actually died and Alabama hooked up with Mr Brown - in the QT script and world, but they changed the ending. This becomes a little strange when put in the context of Clarence and Alabama being the masculine and feminine sides of QT's personality - which I seem to remember him saying in an interview. Great film anyway. We used the theme in our wedding.

    Oliver Stone? Surely you mean Tony Scott.

    Yes, Summer did nothing wrong in 500 days of summer, nevertheless I didn’t really like the movie.

    If you like love stories that don’t necessarily work out La La Land is a better bet.

    Vertigo. Hitchcock summed it with "boy meets girl, boy loses girl, boy meets girl again, boy loses girl again"

    The princess bride. It flopped at the cinema because no-one knew how to market it. Was it a kids movie, a romance, an adventure, a fantasy, a comedy?
    But it manages to be all of them and be a really great movie.

    Romeo and Juliet is not a love story. It's a 3 day relationship between a 13 year old and a 17 year old that caused 6 deaths.

    Just empathises the power of their love, bless their little cotton socks.

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    12 Monkeys is a love story that I wouldn't consider a chick flick (there again, my sister is a chick and she loves Gilliam).

    I liked My Cousin Vinny. Joe Pesci is one romantic mf.

    Anything by Chuck Norris

    Ignoring idiots who comment "far right" because they don't even know what it means
