Classic Hollywood the Only Era for Romantic Movies - Yahoo! Movies - For those of you who feel modern day romance movies are lacking in taste, perhaps you should return to the days when onscreen couples knew how to kiss, not eat each others’ faces off. If you’re tired of the cliched rom-coms and want to watch a couple have a real conversation, then classic is where it’s at.

Rhett: I’m not asking you to forgive me. I’ll never understand or forgive myself. And if a bullet gets me, so help me, I’ll laugh at myself for being an idiot. There’s one thing I do know … and that is that I love you, Scarlett. In spite of you and me and the whole silly world going to pieces around us, I love you. Because we’re alike - bad lots, both of us. Selfish and shrewd, but able to look things in the eye and call them by their right names.
Scarlett: Don’t hold me like that!
Rhett: Scarlett! Look at me! I’ve loved you more than I’ve ever loved any woman, and I’ve waited for you longer than I’ve ever waited for any woman.
Scarlett: Let me alone!
Rhett: Here’s a soldier of the South who loves you, Scarlett; wants to feel your arms around him, wants to carry the memory of your kisses into battle with him. Never mind about loving me - you’re a woman sending a soldier to his death with a beautiful memory. Scarlett! Kiss me! Kiss me … once.

Peter: Now watch me. I’m going to use Number One. Keep your eye on that thumb, baby, and see what happens.
Ellie: I’m still watching your thumb.
Peter: Something must have gone wrong. I guess I’ll try number two.
Ellie: When you get up to a hundred, wake me up.
Peter: I guess maybe I won’t write that book after all.
Ellie: Yes. But look at all the fun you had. Mind if I try?
Peter: You! Don’t make me laugh.
Ellie: You’re such a smart aleck! Nobody can do anything but you. I’ll show you how to stop a car and I won’t use my thumb.
