The exquisite ache of longing suffuses these at once melancholy and intoxicatingly romantic visions of heartbreak, unrequited love, and forbidden passion that luxuriate in the overwhelming pull toward a connection that feels all but impossible. From swooning Hollywood classics (PANDORA AND THE FLYING DUTCHMAN, ALL THAT HEAVEN ALLOWS) and sumptuously stylized period romances (IN THE MOOD FOR LOVE, BRIGHT STAR, THE DEEP BLUE SEA) to tender evocations of queer yearning (MY OWN PRIVATE IDAHO, GOD’S OWN COUNTRY) and unpredictable tales of cosmic connection (SLEEPLESS IN SEATTLE, PREPARATIONS TO BE TOGETHER FOR AN UNKNOWN PERIOD OF TIME), these films overflow with a bittersweet pang that is familiar to anyone who has experienced the peculiar pleasure-pain of all-consuming desire.
