Titanic
Starting off with the OG itself, Titanic came out back in 1997 and even today, it lives rent-free in our hearts. The movie is most certainly one of Leonardo DiCaprio’s and Kate Winslet’s best ever.

A Star is Born
Even though this movie has been remade a couple of times, it was Bradley Cooper’s version that really hit us in our feels. It was the only movie that altered the ending and we loved it so much. In this version of the movie, Jackson (Bradley Cooper) falls in love with a budding songwriter Ally (Lady Gaga) and he pushes her further into her career so that he can see her succeed.

Mia (Emma Stone) and Sebastian (Ryan Gosling) are two artists in the pursuit of fame and at the same time, they struggle to keep up with their love life.
The movie is set in Los Angeles, which makes watching the movie a magical experience. La La Land is brilliant when it comes to a storytelling perspective because the movie is as captivating as it could be. The movie is a perfect blend of both comical and heartbreaking, making it a must-watch for you.
The Fault in Our Stars
This movie was an adaptation of John Green’s best-selling novel under the same name. The Fault in Our Stars is about two teenagers Hazel Grace (Shailene Woodley) and Augustus Waters (Ansel Elgort) who meet in the unlikeliest of places and start developing feelings for each other.
However, the relationship soon turns into a rollercoaster of emotions and at one point; it gets very hard to keep your emotions in control.

The movie stars Jim Carrey (yes, Jim Carrey and it’s not a funny movie) as Joel and Kate Winslet as Clementine.
