Since the start of the movie industry, the most popular stories have been love stories. Because there's no greater fantasy than falling in love with just the right person. But what's one to do when love has completely fallen apart? What movies can one watch when they're in the throes of a breakup? Thankfully, there's over 30 movies that are perfect for the (sad) occasion.
While everyone deals with breakups in their own ways with their own movie rituals - Jess from the show New Girl, for example, liked to cry endlessly to Dirty Dancing - some movies are undisputed in how they heal broken hearts without useless platitudes like "love conquers all." Sometimes, love needs to take a hike.
