1. Love Song (1970).
Cuddle up and let this 70's movie take you into the arms of Harvard Law student Oliver Barrett IV and music student Jennifer Cavilleri. They share a undeniable chemistry enough said.

2. Nine 1/2 Weeks
This is a movie filled with an erotic story involving a woman (in an art gallery) that gets involved in an affair with a man she barely knows. The relationship takes a turn that is all I am going to say. This film features Mickey Rourke and Kim Basinger.

3. Secretary
This film features Maggie Gyllenhall in a must see comedy. She is a young woman, freed from a mental hospital, she gets a job as a secretary to a demanding lawyer, and their relationship turns into a sexual, sadomasochistic one. Enough said.

4. The Last Kiss
This was a great film. Featuring a great cast: Rachel Bilson, zach Braff, Casey Affleck, Jacinda Barrett. A tale of the struggles of life (including marriage). A pregnant wife who seeks devotion from her husband meanwhile he is concerned with preserving a certain part of his youth. At a wedding, he meets a free-spirited college co-ed, who opens his eyes and leads him on a dangerous path away from his wife. Meanwhile, none of the relationships of the people surrounding Michael and Jenna are happy and stable. There is a resounding fear of commitment and we get to see the consequences at the end of the film. GREAT watch.

5. Little Children
This is a great movie with many plots and conflict. The film features Kate Winslet, Patrick Wilson and Jennifer Connelly. It is about about married couples in adulterous affairs in the suburbs. However, it is also a complex story that involves the appearance of a registered sex-offender, a disgraced ex-police officer and a community of struggles withing the plot. I loved this film. Very sexual content so watch out for that.

6. Steel Magnolias
This film is so magnetic for various reasons. For one, it has likable actresses and actors (e.g. Dylan McDermott, Sally Field, Julia Roberts, Dolly Parton). The other reason, it is based on real-life tragic events. A mixture of romance, struggle and friendships. I cried and lauched in this movie. It has this unpretentious feel. It's a real deal n story-telling.

7. Broken English
The story follows a romance love-affair between an American woman and a sexy French man. There is a lot of conflict in the film and the American woman is seeing everyone around her getting married, in relationships, and being happy. This is a great film showing the desparation that arises when a woman enters that one certain area of age and commitment. I fell in love with all the characters.

8.Feast of Love
This movie made me laugh but also made me cry. It became this medium that made my heart break for the characters in the film. I could feel all their sincere emotions. Featuring Morgan Freeman, Selma Blair, Alexa Davalos and Toby Hemingway. This is a story about young love and what it means to fall in love at first sight. This film gives special light to all of us who have loved unconditionally, and some who have lost this love; we can find love again, and that that love can come in many different forms and different ways.

9. 7 Pounds
I will not lie. This movie is a MAJOR tear-jerker. Will Smith and Rosario Dawson did a superb potrayal of deep emotional connection. It is a must see that is all I have to say.

10. Nights in Rodanthe
Richard Gere and Diane Lane in a romantic movie with sad undertones. Great acting, scenery and activity. It made me want to find Rodanthe and the particular house that brough it all together. I really liked this movie. GREAT feel to this film.

So there you have it. Whether you are choosing to have a Valentine's Day date and watch movies with your special valentine or whether you choose to present this collection of movies to your girlfriend. This is a great Valentine Day gift to share together. I wish you all the best of happiness and love as you get to conect with your special loves.
