Titanic
Titanic is not only one of the greatest movies of all time but it is the highest grossing film of all time in the history of
Directed by James Cameron, the movie Titanic depicts the time of tragic accident of famous ship Titanic in which a true love story emerges. A first class passenger Rose DeWitt Bukater boards fall in love with a third class passenger of the ship, Jack Dawson. However, Roses fiancĂ© Caledon Hockley, played by Billy Zane, becomes furious to Jack and tries to take revenge. Until then they did not know that what was waiting to their fate. In the mean time, the captains of the ship observes that the ship hit an ice berg causing a big crack in the outer surface of the ship and eventually Titanic, the biggest ship of that time, starts sinking. It was beyond anybody’s imagination that such a tragic end could be possible for such a ship like Titanic.
Meanwhile, the relationship between Jack and Rose becomes closure and
It Could Happen to You (1994)
It really can happen to you. Just like Nicholas Cage, you can be stuck in an unhappy marriage with a woman who only understands money and ambition. However, that does not mean that all women are like this. That also does not mean that you should destroy your life. Instead, keep working hard and remain being a good man. Then, sooner or later you can meet a nice woman like Bridget Fonda.
I feel that the main message of It Could Happen to You is that you should think a lot before you get married. You should try to find out a life partner who is good and who is like you. Nicholas Cage is at his best in this movie and you will enjoy the movie always.Alex and Emma (2003)
I am not a big fan of Kate Hudson but yet I like this movie and I like her acting in Alex and Emma. Alex and Emma has depicted a dilemma for many men. In real life, we often see that many men get crazy for beautiful, hot and gorgeous women and for doing so, they destroy their career and even life. In this movie, the hero Alex did it. He gambled everything and even his life for a rich, beautiful and sexy woman and lost. He at first failed to see that there are many ordinary but good women around him and if he tries he can really be happy.
The message of the movie Alex and Emma is very simple but powerful- don’t be blind for fancy women or else you will have to pay a very heavy price and become unhappy in life. Many young men or should I say most young men make the same mistake like Alex and become unhappy. They fail to see the real and inner beauty of girls like Emma. Thus, they make their life unnecessarily complicated and unhappy.
Man on the Elysian Field (2001)
Man on the Elysian Field is a movie that can bring tears out of most people who watch it. The story is a bit complicated and emotional. The lead male actor Andy Garcia said about this movie: “It's a dark, comedic, morality tale. It has the qualities of a fable.” In the movie, he is totally a family man but at the same time he is idealist too. Desperate times forced him to become dishonest. He was in an illusion that whatever he was doing he was doing for his family. This illusion cost him a lot and he lost his wife and son.
I think that the message of the movie is that you have to make a balance between being idealistic and pragmatic. Andy Garcia should not have left his job in an advertisement company in the first place when he has a wife and child.

Little Women (1994)
I am sure that all of you will get shocked to see this movie in the list. Well, I have included it for two reasons. First of all, it depicts a lovely family where the mother and all her daughters have happy life. Of course, this kind of love does not define as romantic love. No problem. I like the ending of this movie. In the last scene, Gabriel Byrne tells Winona Ryder that his hands were empty and he had nothing to give her. She takes her hand into hers and tells that it was not empty anymore. This is a very touching moment. Of course, if you are a rich man then it would not mean anything to you.
Notting Hill
Can the most famous film star in the world fall for just an ordinary guy? Well, any of us may think it is impossible as famous film stars are busy with attractive particular people. But in Notting Hill movie this impossible fancy comes true.
Anna Scott (Julia Roberts) is the American world’s most famous movie star. Her picture is on the cover of every magazine. Any time she makes a movie, the whole world knows about it. Ones, this beautiful actress enters to the shop of William Thacker (Hugh Grant) who owns a travel bookstore in Notting Hill-He is an unsuccessful man in business and his personal life. He is divorced and lives with an abnormal roommate.
First, William can’t believe it, after few minutes he runs into her again. He is so excited that he spills orange juice over her. William invites her to his nearby apartment to change in and Anna accepts and thanks him with a kiss.
For both, something or someone seems to be missing. The romance is the last thing come on their minds. Anna and William get to know each other better over the month but each month they pass they have to face the ultimate question more seriously: can two people fall in love with the whole world watching?
The screen play was written by Richard Curtis and it was directed by Roger Michell. Notting Hill released 28 May 1999 in the
