February 14th Valentine’s Day – the best day of the year to watch a romantic movie with the person you love. If you don’t already have a favorite romantic movie, or want to try something new, check out the list below for some V-Day suggestions.
Dialog
1. Listen and Read - Listen to the audio and read the dialog at the same time.
2. Study - Read the dialog again to see how the vocab words are used.
Gone with the Wind[/def]
Gone with the Wind is a classic love story. It’s an epic set in the South during the Civil War[/def]. I love Scarlett O’Hara[/def]. She is so pouty and strong-willed and doesn’t want to fall in love with Rhett Butler[/def]. Rhett is a cocky man that sincerely wants to make Scarlett a happy woman.
Romeo and Juliet[/def]
Shakespeare[/def]’s Romeo and Juliet is another classic love story. In the most recent Romeo and Juliet movie, with Leonardo DiCaprio as Romeo and Claire Danes as Juliet, the two star-crossed lovers live in today’s world, but the actors use Shakespeare’s original prose.
Say Anything[/def]
My favorite romantic movie is Say Anything. John Cusack plays Lloyd Dobler, a genuine good guy who wants to date the valedictorian of his high school. John Cusack has starred in many romantic movies, but this one, I think, is the most realistic portrayal of falling in love.
Pretty Woman[/def]
Pretty Woman is a modern day Cinderella[/def] story. It is a sweet, sappy movie about two very different people who meet one fateful night. Julia Roberts plays a prostitute who is picked up by Richard Gere, a rich businessman. Against all odds, they fall in love and live happy ever after.

Discussion
Are you a fan of romantic movies? Will you be curled up in front of the TV watching one this Valentine’s Day? I hope so.
Some people don’t like romantic movies because they are nothing like real life. I have to admit, I like romantic movies because they give you a chance to imagine what life could be like. You can pretend you’re in the movie, fighting for your loved one or falling in love again. The possibilities are endless.
See you at the movies!
