These are some of the movies we feel make the cut -

1. Gone with the Wind – Old is gold. A 1939 film, adapted from the only romantic novel ever written by Margaret Mitchell. The story of Scarlett O’Hara in the deep south is poignantly told on camera as a cinematic masterpiece. Rated by film critics as one of the best of all time.

2. Honeymoon Travels – This 2007 movie is one of the funniest Bollywood flicks ever. Six different newly-wed couples get into a bus on a honeymoon to Goa. This film details the incredible quirks of a bunch of people stuck together. An innovative debut by Reema Kagti, it promises to keep you on the edge of your seats. One of the most entertaining and tongue-in-cheek scenes in the movie are the couple who trace their origin to superheroes. Definitely value for money and worth a watch.

3.Titanic: Its claim to fame – one of the highest grossing films of all time. If last year’s Avatar transported you to the magical world of Pandora, the real-life heartbreaking story of the ship with a million dreams has the potential to take you to an alternate dimension.
