**"Wait, what just happened?"**
Not every love story ends with a kiss in the rain. Some are messy, tragic, or heartbreakingly real. Here are **5 romance films that broke our hearts—in the best way.**

### 1. **La La Land (2016)**
πΉ *Love, ambition, and what could’ve been.*

π *This is not a love story. This is a story about love.*

### 5. **Atonement (2007)**
π° *Love lost to lies, war, and fate.*

## π¬ Final Thought
Romantic movies don't always need a happy ending to leave a lasting impression. In fact, sometimes it's the heartbreak—the “what ifs” and “could have beens”—that stick with us the most.
So next time you're in the mood for something romantic but real, give one of these a watch. Just... maybe keep the tissues close.
