    "My Girl" always makes me sob buckets, especially when Vada cries "His glasses, he can't see without his glasses! He was gonna be an acrobat." Even worse, she is indirectly responsible for her best friend's death, and the funeral takes place in her house. 💔😓

    WHAAAT? How can ‘The Notebook’ not be on this list?🤦🏻‍♀️ I cried reading the book, so I knew the movie would be awesome. Honestly, any novel by Nicholas Sparks made into a movie could be on this list (glad to see A Walk to Remember made it!) Hey @MsMojo…there’s a an idea! Top 10 movies based on Nicholas Sparks novels!🤗👍
    Next, ‘Benjamin Button’ is another sad ending that comes to mind.
    ‘A Star is Born’ is my second fave movie of all time…the 1976 version with Streisand/Kristofferson. I was obsessed! Had the t-shirt, soundtrack on 8-track, VHS & DVDs, the paperback movie book, AND ‘Evergreen’ at my wedding! But I digress. I preferred the ending that was open for interpretation, rather than the blatant ending of the GaGa/Cooper version.

    Focus really wrong by picking TITANIC; romance sort of incidental to the shipful of people sinking. You don't pick SOPHIE'S CHOICE, but the same objection would apply: The romance is not the big business.
    Going for the obvious CASABLANCA highlights the failure to notice countless older movies: WUTHERING HEIGHTS (1939),
    MADAME DE..., BRIEF ENCOUNTER, LETTER FROM AN UNKNOWN WOMAN, THE CHILDREN'S HOUR
    A STAR IS BORN is Judy & Co.
