So, for today's poll, we thought we'd do great movie scenes that convey love. There are SO many romances out there that it was impossible to choose. Because of that, we went with some of the most popular romances we could find. As always, feel free to cast a vote for something of your own choosing.
And, with that said, we'll begin with one of the most romantic movies ever. I couldn't find the transcript of the exact scene I wanted, but I found some awesome quotes.
The Notebook
“I love you. I am who
I am because of you. You are every reason, every hope, and every dream I've
ever had, and no matter what happens to us in the future, everyday we are
together is the greatest day of my life. I will always be yours. ”
“We fell in love, despite our differences, and
once we did, something rare and beautiful was created. For me, love like that
has only happened once, and that's why every minute we spent together has been
seared in my memory. I'll never forget a single moment of it.”
“Noah: "You wanna dance with me?"
Allie: "Sure. Now?"
Noah: "Mmm Hmm"
Allie: "You're not supposed to dance in the street."
Noah: "You are supposed to dance in the street."
Allie: "Yeah, but we don't have any music."
Noah: "Well, we'll make some... Bum bum bum bum bum bum..."
Allie: "You're a terrible singer."
Noah: "I know."
Allie: "And I like this song.”
Jerry Maguire:
Jerry: Wait. Okay, okay. Okay. If this is
where it has to happen, then this is where it has to happen. I'm not letting
you get rid of me. How about that? This used to be my
specialty. You know, I
was good in the living room. They'd send me in there, I'd do it alone. And now
I just... I don't know. But tonight, our little project, our company, had a
very big night. A very, very big night. But it wasn't complete, wasn't nearly
close to being in the same vicinity as complete, because I couldn't share it
with you. I couldn't hear your voice, or laugh about it with you. I missed my
wife. We live in a cynical world, a cynical, cynical world, and we work in a
business of tough competitors. I love you. You complete me. And if I just had...
Dorothy: (interrupting) Shut up. Just shut up.....You had me
at hello. You had me at hello.
Moulin
Rouge: This is part of the song Christian writes
for Satine to convince her of his undying love.
Never
knew I could feel like this,
like I’ve never seen the sky before,
Wanna
vanish inside your kiss,
everyday I’m loving you more and more.
Listen
to my heart, can you hear it sing?
Telling
me to give you everything.
Season’s
may change, winter to spring
But
I love you, until the end of time
Come
what may, Come what may
I
will love you until my dying day.
The Princess
Bride:
Westley and Buttercup are standing
outside. They embrace.
Grandfather:
“It was a very emotional time for Buttercup.”
Grandson:
I don’t believe this!
Buttercup:
I fear I will never see you again
Westley:
Of course you will.
Buttercup:
But what if something happens to you?
Westley:
Here this now: I will always come for you.
Buttercup:
But how can you be sure?
Westley:
This is True Love. You think this happens every day? Kisses her, picks up his
bag, walks away.
Grandfather:
“Westley didn’t reach his destination. His ship was attacked by the Dread
Pirate Roberts, who never left captives alive. When Buttercup got the news that
Westley was murdered,--“
Grandson:
Murdered by pirates is good…
Grandfather:
“She went into her room and shut the door, and for days she neither slept nor
ate.”
Buttercup sits in a chair in her
room.
Buttercup:
I will never love again.
When Harry Met Sally:
I love that you get
cold when it is 71 degrees out.
I love that it takes you an hour and a half to
order a sandwich. I love that you get a little crinkle in your nose when you're
looking at me like I'm nuts. I love that after I spend day with you, I can still
smell your perfume on my clothes. And I love that you are the last person I
want to talk to before I go to sleep at night. And it's not because I'm lonely,
and it's not because it's New Year's Eve. I came here tonight because when you realize you want to spend the
rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of your life to start as
soon as possible.
Say Anything: Scene where John Cusack holds up boom box and plays, "In Your Eyes." Enough said.
So, to recap, your choices are:
The Notebook
Jerry Maguire

P.S. I copied and pasted some of this, and then couldn't figure out how to get rid of the white boxes around the text, just in case anyone is wondering why they are there. haha
