The most famous movie couples have the ability to turn cynics into believers and critics into fans. Picture this: you're sitting on the couch, settled in with your favorite flick. Next thing you know, butterflies are fluttering in your stomach, your eyes are watering, and you begin to feel something deep in your belly. Is it hope? Is that even possible to feel anymore? These symptoms are often associated with watching a love story. Whether it's a romantic comedy or a drama—the outcome is the same. Love stories make you believe in love. That chemistry just *has* to be real, right? I know we're not really saying #CoupleGoals anymore, but everyone has that fictional relationship they aspire towards...even if it's a secret.
When it comes to compiling an official list of the most famous movie couples, we have high standards. The couples have to be aspirational in some way (sorry, Anastasia and Christian), the chemistry palpable, and most importantly, the love has to be intense—even if they never get their happy ending. We can indulge in passionate affairs that aren't endgame just as much as we love to see a rock-solid relationship. 'Tis better to have love and lost than never loved at all, and all that.
From Jack and Rose on the Titanic to Sex and the City's Carrie Bradshaw and Mr. Big, here are the 61 most famous movie couples who continue to live on in our hearts long after the final credits roll. (By the way, if you and your boo decide to dress up as any of these popular duos for Halloween, I certainly will not judge!)
