54. There are quite a few so here

are some of those:

"Swept Away by an Unusual Destiny in the Blue Sea of August" from 1974. The original and not the awful remake. Lina Wertmuller directing Giancarlo Giannini again as she did so well in other movies as well.

Anything Bogart and Bacall.

"Marty" from 1955 with Ernest Borgnine. Love breaks through everything trying to hold it back.

"Frankie and Johnny" from 1991. Al Pacino and Michelle Pfeiffer.

I know this may sound silly but the old "Andy Hardy" movies always hit a note with me. Mainly because who doesn't like simpler times, likeable characters and happy endings?
