Top 15 Romance Movies From the Past 35 Years as Ranked by IMDb Users9 of 16
8. Before Midnight (2013) – Rating 7.9
It feels like we're starting backward on this one because — spoiler alert! — the previous two movies in this powerful, real-as-it-gets series are higher up on the list. Before Midnight follows Jesse (Ethan Hawke) and Celine (Julie Delpy) nine years after Before Sunset and almost two decades after their first meeting in Before Sunrise. This movie, showing the mature couple, displays the realities not just of love but of relationships. There are no fairy tales here.
