Have you ever seen the film Nothing to loose. This one beguins with Tim Robbins and his wife having a conversation.
She: You know, it is not your fault, ... what the heck, It IS your fault, and your father gives me better sex
and then Tim beguins to laugh. They are just playing a game that consist in pretending break ups

You missed one of the most insightful and truthful failed romance films of recent history, ALL THE REAL GIRLS (Sony Pictures Classics, 2001). While you may recognize yourself on screen at times, the film never slips into sentimentality or the cheese-filled verbosity of most films that deal with first romances. This film will massage your old wounds in a way that is both touching, funny, and haunting.

Interesting that Nerve doesn't answer the question in its own personals section about a favorite sex scene in the movies.

What about "Shoot the Moon"? Is it too grown-up for this list? It's heartbreaking in an adult way, and Diane Keaton
gets it on with the lovely Peter Weller.

I wondered the same thing, but I think the graphic is from the jeremy irons version.

When you mention the film Lolita, are you referring to the Stanley Kubrick version, or the 1998 version with Jeremy Irons? Both are good, but the 1998 version with Jeremy Irons drips with much more humanity.

mmm, yea Im thinking Virgin Suicides would have been a nice 6 or 7. But these are Carrie's favorites... not those of the 22 year old guy. Loved Heathers.

A recent indy breakup flick with all the melancholy and hope of the slow, mutual split is "Parsley Days" by Canadian director Andrea Dorfman. A user on Internet Movie Database calls it "refreshingly anti-romantic yet warm". Couldn't say it better myself. Sad and sexy canoe scenes -- and you don't know Canada until you know about sex in canoes, so a breakup in a canoe is a good place to start.

"I don't even own a gun, let alone many guns which would neccesitate a gun rack"- probably the best line in Wayne's World.
