Going through a breakup? Whether you're looking for escapism or self-assessment, some laughs or some bitter revenge, these are some of the best movies ever to deal directly with the end of a relationship and the world that awaits.

"Legally Blond" is an empowering tale of how a woman who's dumped but finds a much better life without the loser! A feel good movie for any woman who has been dumped - showing there is life after a breakup.

"Under the Tuscan Sun" I've always loved that movie. It's more of a journey to finda true self fulfilment in life. While I was going through my divorce I watched it more than 100 times.


Everytime I was let down I put that movie on. like...Few days ago I watched it 4 times until I felt better.


Sometimes even thughyou do try your best to make things work,... shit happens in life. It's not you. At least it's good to know that you've done your best.


And when shit happens...like break up...how does one pick onseself up?


After being with somebody so long sometimes you do kinda lose yourself in the process and that's why it's extra hard to pick yourself up again.


Then what do you do.... find yourself again...in a newer and a better way. Then you can truely move on. I am still in the process but at least I am really enjoying to get to know myself again.

oh pls do we have do go all chickflick? Yes, I'm female[consider myself romantic, intelligent and kind hearted] but have an extreme aversion to these movies at the best of times, will definitely not watch them when I'm down. Give me car chases, shoot 'em ups and wall to wall violence anyday.

The Breakup was sad but had a hopeful ending, as did Eternal Sunshine. Haven't seen Sarah Marshall yet but plan to!

I am with gcgirl, the action movies gets your heart racing and a good kick in the rear to wake up. Without having to see through more tears.

Believe it or not, I actually think Casablanca is a great break-up movie. Think about it. (SPOILERS INCOMING.) Who ends up with the girl? Paul Henreid. And who wants to be Paul Henreid? Nobody! EVERYBODY want to be Humphrey Bogart: the one who says "get on that plane and fly away from me, because it's really for the best." The one who stands there looking strong and tough and cool as he lets the most beautiful woman in the world go. The one who heads off with Claude Rains in a state of perennial non-attachment to fight the Nazis and get in adventures. Casablanca is maybe the greatest romantic move of all time, but I've found it a real source of strength following a break-up.

Where is "French Kiss" on this list? "When Harry Met Sally"? These two while not specifically designed around a break up offered funny and heartwarming advice on the ups and downs of relationships. Try them out !!!
