If you’re planning a date with someone relatively new and you’d like to help stimulate some snuggling time between the two of you—nothing touchy-feely; just a little cuddling—these movies might be able to help you do just that. Also: never underestimate the power of breath mints.

Ghost. If this movie doesn’t move you to at least hold hands as tears threaten to spill, you have either seen it way too many times, or you have a heart of stone. Of course, I’ve seen it over a dozen times and I still cry like a baby. Then, naturally, there’s this smoking scene.

The Notebook. Yeah, it’s by one of my least favorite authors, and a little overused, and sappy, and, okay, downright mawkish, but it’s pretty sweet, and I know a lot of guys and girls who admit to being swept off their feet by it. It features the kind of sweetly romantic scenes that make you want to just hold onto someone.

Beauty and the Beast. If you are both into cartoons, this is definitely the one to go with.

At First Sight. It’s not the best movie, but it’s really romantic, with moving imagery and some sexy scenes.

Atonement. This one really threw me, considering I don’t usually fall for period films (with few exceptions). It’s absolutely heartbreaking, with lush romantic scenes scattered through a movie filled with meaning and despair. I get chills thinking about it.

The End of the Affair. Despite its weird, slightly supernatural twist, this movie features Julianne Moore and Ralph Fiennes as an incredibly believable couple consumed by their passion, despite her marriage to another man.

King Kong. Believe it or not, the latest adaptation of this film is extremely good—and extremely romantic. You’ll clutch each other in both anticipation during the action sequences as well as the romantic scenes—which, of course, sometimes occur at the same time.

The Incredible Hulk. I don’t mean the crappy Eric Bana version; I mean the one that really was incredible, starring Edward Norton and Liv Tyler. The romantic moments are few, but they are woven as a theme throughout the movie—and the moments that are there are so tender, without being eye-roll inducing. (I was so pissed when I heard that Norton was being replaced with Mark Ruffalo, but I suppose since the Hulk is destined for a downfall, it’s okay.) I would also recommend Thor for similar reasons, though Hulk is better.
