7 Movies For Singles To Watch On Valentine's Day: 'Clueless' And More [VIDEO]
Valentine's Day is just around the corner. It's that time of the year when couples parade their love for each other, which isn't exactly much to a single person's liking.
While some would drown their misery in countless Jägerbombs and yelling to every couple passing by, we'd much rather prefer cozying up on the couch with a box of pizza, a tub of ice cream and the finest movie selections made for those flying solo.
Here's a cool list of films you should watch on this Valentine's Day if you're single.
Special Candy Filled Valentine's Day Centerpiece
A Girl Walks Home Alone At Night
This is one killer film that would surely empower every single woman out there. It tells the tale of a young skateboarding vampire who preys on men who disrespect other women in a worn out Iranian city. There's a prevailing sense of cool eeriness throughout the movie, which we guarantee will get you hooked. Plus, we're all about that strong female protagonist vibe.
Forgetting Sarah Marshall
This film never fails to make us laugh out loud. It follows the story of a man who breaks up with his girlfriend after finding out she's been cheating on him for a year. The catch? In a feat to forget it all, he manages to take a vacation at the same exact place as his ex and her new boyfriend. If the ensemble cast of Jason Segel, Paul Rudd, Mila Kunis and Jonah Hill won't entertain you, we don't know what will!
Frances Ha
If you're feeling lost in your '20s, then surely watching Frances Ha will make you go "I know how that feels!". It's a heartwarming story of an aspiring dancer who goes from one unfortunate event to the next, hoping she'll eventually come out of it successful. It does a good job on reminding us that it's perfectly fine to feel hapless every once in a while.
Blue Valentine
If you want a intense and reminder of why you refuse to commit to anyone, this is it. Blue Valentine is set to rip you apart in pieces but will also tell you why exactly you enjoy being single. It's a story about a couple who have been together for years and are clearly on their way to damnation. The acting prowess and chemistry of Ryan Gosling and Michelle Williams is so eerily good, it hurts.
Clueless
Looking to stick to some light-hearted fun? Clueless is a fail-proof film, whether you're watching it alone or your BFF's. It's a modern-day adaptation of Jane Austen's Emma and it surely delivers on the wit, charm and humor all single people need during on this dreaded day.
Moonrise Kingdom
Wes Anderson has been known to deliver some of the most whimsical movies of today. If there is one movie you shouldn't go without this Valentine's it's this one. What could be more adorable than a romance about two 12-year old runaways? Plus, the film is such a sight for sore eyes, you'll be sucked in from start to finish.
To Kill A Mockingbird
If the other pressing matters of life and current events aren't enough reminders for you that Valentine's Day shouldn't be a big deal, then watch this. The movie is stuffed with themes that remain as significant as they were in the '60s and stars a young girl who has a lot to handle compared to children her age. Valentine's Day got nothing on that, right?
