NEXT RESEND CATEGORY IS TOP TEN ROMANTIC MOVIES>>>see below…originally don in  Feb. 2008.

 

I would add since then the following: The Curious Case of Benjamin Button; and  500 days of Summer.

 

 

To continue with my 2008 project of choosing my top ten movies of all time from different categories or, as the critics say, "genres", my next category is ROMANTIC MOVIES. With a few exceptions...actually 3, I'm not going way back to the "oldies but goodies". So most will be after 1960, and in my list, I'll  give the year the movie first played. They are in descending order of best or favorite with my best being #1. I couldn’t quite narrow them down to just ten, so I’ve fudged a little and have listed a 3-way tie for #10.
