Valentine’s Day can easily be closed with a good love movie. For this we recommend 6 interesting stories of lovers -very different from each other- that you can easily find on the most popular platforms. We see.
1- Secret in the mountains
Where? Star+
Ennis Del Mar and Jack Twist’s long-running romance has come to never win. Two cowboys? They met while working in the mountains, fell in love and from that moment everything went uphill for them.
Solid Western-trimmed melodrama with unforgettable performances by Jake Gyllenhaal and Heath Ledger and situations that constantly emphasize that love can do anything. You won 3 Academy Awards, including Best Adapted Screenplay and Best Director.
2- On the body and the soul
Where? Netflix
This is the rare story of Maria and Endre, a slaughterhouse supervisor and her boss. The action takes place in Budapest. The film is Hungarian and competed for the foreign Oscar in 2017 after winning the best prize at the Berlin Film Festival.
On Body and Soul proposes something different and, considering its humble goals, it is undoubtedly perfect. His premise is simple and inspiring: Can two people fall in love in their dreams?
The way the director and screenwriter Ildiko Enyedi try to check that it is thrifty, imposing and, above all, very romantic.
3- The Great Gatsby
Where? HBO Max
One of the best novels of all time about the twenties, jazz and art deco could not be adapted to the cinema by anyone but Baz Luhrmann (without detracting from the previous version with Robert Redford).
probably the teacher F. Scott Fitzgerald He wouldn’t have been proud of this adaptation with music by Lana del Rey and some temporary licenses, but moviegoers who enjoy musicals and romance might be.
Although the Jay Gatsby of Leonardo Dicaprio sometimes it is required by the business and that the narrator of the film is his neighbor, the first layer of analysis of the work is the nervous and sentimental relationship between the protagonist and Daisy, the woman of his life.
4- The bridges of Madison
Where? HBO Max
For films like this Clint Eastwood is generally recognized as a better director than an actor. The Bridges of Madison is a hymn to the most classic cinematic romance.
Few smiles break when you see the honeyed and minimalist romance between housewife Francesca Johnson, played by a royal Meryl Streepand photographer Robert Kincaid, played by Clint himself.
Eastwood does not deviate from the norm of certain melodramas, but makes the novel he adapts his own. The most distinctive features of his classic directorial work can be seen here flowing and coexisting in harmony. The result: NAPS (not suitable for sensitive people).
5- A matter of time
Where? Prime Video and Netflix
Like The Great Gatsby, the romance in A Matter of Time is probably just the surface of a story that tells something else.
Definitely the movie Richard Curtis She is the funniest, sweetest and most optimistic of the ones on this list. The story is that of Tim, a young man who discovers that he can travel to the past very easily. The joke is to see how this family “secret” is revealed when the protagonist meets the girl of his dreams.
The awesome seasoning is just a subtle elegant excuse used by the manager of A place called Notting Hill AND current love to talk about family relationships and beautiful love stories in the UK.
6.Undine
Where? qubits
German director Christian Petzold hasn’t stopped making top-notch films for a long time. Undine is no exception, far from it.
