somebody told me i should watch CLOSER, because natalie portman'd be "eye-candy". and the romance features CYBERSEX.

hmm, i watched big fish..burton's kind of romance i suppose, but it was even more of a fairy tell than amelie :)
i was thinking romance more like 'intimacy', 'vendredi soir'or '5x2',...something to do with passion and all that..
i'll check out crazy beautiful and the sure thing (i like dunst and cusak :), but i think i'll skip leaving las vegas - i can't stand nicholas cage!! quite possibly the most unconvincing actor ever.

you'd probably like "Une liaison pornographique" - a film about a man and a woman who meet eachother to have some peculiar kind of sex (which you never find out what it actually is) after answering an add in a newspaper. you get to see their meetings between the sex-dates. it sounds kind of crude, but it's very subtle.
that film is written by the same man that wrote "Thomas in love", which you also might like. this one is a sci-fi-story, completely told from first-person-perspective (you see everything he looks at) of Thomas. Thomas has agoriaphobia and never leaves his apartment, only using a kind of internet-like thing to talk to various people, including his therapist, a state-run prostitution agency, a state-run dating agency, etc.
it's very character-driven.

eehhh I wouldn't put it under "romance" though. it's a great film, one of my personal favourites, but it's intense as fuck.
it's very psychological.

Eternal sunshine of course... Lost in Translation... Romeo and Juliette (but i didn't like it). Kill Bill can even be a romantic movie in some ways.
There are of course lots more cool ones that i can't think of right away

I can't stand Cage either but he's actually ok in that film, maybe he was really drunk for his scenes?

nice, i hope you've seen 'in the mood for love' first though. Zhang Ziyi is amazing in 2046, I never thought she could act before, not this well anyway.

I haven't seen that, but it's on quite often on FilmFour, so no doubt I'll get to see it soon.
I've always thought Zhang Ziyi was a great actress, except in Rush Hour 2 of course but she didn't exactly have much to do except wander about looking nasty and sexy.
