Top 6: Movie Dates
It's a weird thing. For all the romance in movies, there aren't a lot of people going out on actual dates. (Perhaps movie characters are just too busy having careers, feuds, and bad days to have time for a dating life that takes up more time than an occasional Meet Cute?) In Episode 28, we list some of our favorite movie date scenes.
What are yours?
