Top 10 romantic films

According to Sharon Kaplan of the LA Daily News, Pride and Prejudice ranks right up there with Sleepless in Seattle and When Harry met Sally as one of the best movies for dates and Valentine's Day.
"Pride and Prejudice": Jane Austen's classic romantic and humorous tale set in Georgian England proves that love can conquer all - including social class, family scandals and corsets. For my British pound, the BBC miniseries adaptation starring Darcy-incarnate Colin Firth and Jennifer Ehle as Elizabeth Bennet - and clocking in at a whopping 300 minutes - ranks the highest on the romance meter. If your own Mr. Darcy makes it through this, he'll have learned chivalry from the master. And lord knows, a little of that goes a long way.
