Welcome back to The Formative Films Project. We’ll next look at depictions of romance in film, whether that be young love in the modern era, brief encounters, or even when a long-term relationship isn’t meant to be.
Most of these are love stories. Some of them are stories about love. Either way, these 10 movies deal with how we connect and communicate with each other, simultaneously a welcome catharsis during a pandemic and a reminder of our desire to, well, get back out there.
