Shakespeare in Love (1998)
"You will never age for me, nor fade, nor die." Even when love is as perfect (and perfectly witty) as Joseph Fiennes's Will Shakespeare and Gwyneth Paltrow's Viola de Lesseps, that doesn't mean it's meant to last. Whatever critics may say, it was no fluke that this film won Best Picture. The writing and acting are divine, and that ending! It isn't happy. It isn't tragic. It's simply perfect.
