There are few better ways to celebrate Valentine's Day than cuddled up with your loved one or a group of girlfriends on the couch, watching the ultimate romantic classics. Need inspiration? Here are some movies worth staying home for.
Why When Harry Met Sally is a must-see: We'll have what Meg Ryan is having.
Why Breakfast at Tiffany's is a must-see: Love is a Cracker Jack ring engraved at Tiffany's. Audrey Hepburn is gorgeous. Cat was damn cute, too.
Why Dr. Zhivago is a must-see: The balalaika music is sublimely sappy, plus there's a never-ending parade of fur fashions.
Why Harold and Maude is a must-see: Bud Cort and Ruth Gordon are the oddest couple of all, but somehow it's still strangely romantic.
Why Wuthering Heights is a must-see: Years later, you will still remember Laurence Olivier on the moors, shouting, "Cathy! Cathy!"
Why The Apartment is a must-see: A fallen woman (Shirley MacLaine) gets her man and a happy ending. Hardly anyone ever gets that.
Why Waterloo Bridge is a must-see: We get a luminescent Vivien Leigh and a fabulous fade-out.
Why Splendor in the Grass is a must-see: Natalie Wood and Warren Beatty -- of course it was splendid.
Why Bull Durham is a must-see: Two hunks -- Tim Robbins and Kevin Costner -- for her. A very sexy Susan Sarandon and baseball for him.
Why Babette's Feast is a must-see: Stephane Audran shows dour Danes the way to gourmet heaven.
Why Brief Encounter is a must-see: Celia Johnson and Trevor Howard -- both married, but not to each other -- meet and fall in love, and part. People were still noble in 1945.
Why Moonstruck is a must-see: Love at first sight never gets old -- neither does Puccini.
Why Annie Hall is a must-see: The look. The laughs. The lobsters. Woody Allen and Diane Keaton were never more loveable.
Why Like Water for Chocolate is a must-see: The way to a man's heart is through his stomach.
