‘The Bodyguard’
While the romantic pairing of Whitney Houston and Kevin Costner is often upstaged by that song (yes, the Dolly Parton-penned “I Will Always Love You” that Houston took and made soar), the sweeping 1992 movie itself is the perfect mix of danger, passion and pizzazz that has aged incredibly well.
“The Wedding Planner” (2001)
Wedding planner Mary (Jennifer Lopez) experiences a near-fatal accident, only to be rescued by the charming Dr. Steve Edison (Matthew McConaughey). Their magical night together leaves Mary believing in love. But fate has other plans when she discovers that Steve is her next client.

“The Princess Bride” (1987)
