Pride and Prejudice
We love the 2005 retelling of Jane Austen’s classic story starring Keira Knightley as Elizabeth Bennet and Matthew Macfayden as Mr Darcy. Even when you know Elizabeth is going to fall for single, rich and seemingly arrogant Darcy and he is going to fall for her, despite her headstrong ways and being beneath his class, this never fails to charm.

The movie that propelled Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet to super stardom when they play a boy and girl from different social backgrounds who meet on the ill-fated maiden voyage of the Titanic. You know it’s doomed from the start but it’s gripping nonetheless and the cinematography is breathtaking.
