The most romantic films!

This Valentine's Day, they will swamp the restaurants, multiplexes and lounge bars.

They will make a beeline for your favourite weekend getaway and steal your usual spot on the promenade.

Before you know it, every nook and cranny in the city and outside will be crammed with couples. Besides, you will spend more time battling traffic than with your valentine.

You may have to wait forever to land that love couch at the theatre. And you will have to shout out sweet nothings over a cacophony of love declarations, at your favourite restaurant. Quality time with your sweetheart? Forget it!

Before you know, February 14 will has whizzed by and you won't have one romantic memory to your credit!

So this Valentine's, why not steal away from the hoi polloi and spend a quiet evening at home -- just your sweetheart, you and a movie or two?!

Here is a lineup of the top romantic films of all times.

Rent one of these from your neighbourhood video library, order a takeaway, and spend what could turn out to be the most romantic Valentine's of your life. At home!
