I wanted to be explicit in the title, because if one (or both) is married, it's an added variable that I'm not really looking for. Almost every movie is a love story, but so many are so similar, and it gets boring. I think it helps if each actor is an individual, too.
Foreign or domestic. I'll take quality any day!  |

Неоконченная повесть , Unfinished Story (1955) Soviet Union. Dir. Fridrikh Ermler An excellent melodrama about the power of love. Local doctor Yelizaveta Maksimovna is a lonely woman, a caring and sympathetic person, one of her patients is masculine ship building engineer Yershov, now chained to his bed with a paralysis of both legs, following a recent accident. Every morning Yershov looks forward to the arrival of the district doctor, who aids his recovery and fills him with love and hope. *EDIT...Watched again last night and was left with tears down my cheeks. What a beautiful Soviet film and story, stay with it, the tale warms up along the way and culminates with a touching finale composition, which is pure cinematic joy.  Elina Bystritskaya as Yelizaveta Muromtseva with Sergey Bondarchuk as Yuri Yershov

 A funny and quirky drama about a young man who gets involved with a strange young woman after he saves her from falling in front of a train when she is drunk. A longish clip: Warning: The clip does show the young woman vomiting on an old man. |

Take the term "meeting" loosely and Tie Me Up! Tie Me Down! (1989). They definitely met. I am certain I haven't seen a courting like this film before or since.

Now that you mention it, almost every Godzilla movie has some sort of romantic story line. |
