Breakups are bad, like really bad. However, we all get and need to have some time to recover from this painful feeling. You can try a lot of things like eat a tub full of ice-cream (because you deserve it), as much chocolate as you like (because you deserve it), buy as many clothes as you want to (because you effing deserve it). Once you are done with all this, make some popcorn for yourself (with extra butter) and resort to some of the best post-breakup movies ever.
We have gathered a list of movies that have perfectly summed up the commencement and adjournment of a relationship. While some deal with the post-breakup issues, others deal with the ultimate revenge on unfaithful partners. However, there’s one thing common in both of these types and that is, they are perfect for the end of this dreadful situation and the start to your freedom.
Add these 10 movies to your-Movies To Watch list and enjoy where getting over the past:
1. Under The Tuscan Sun
Cast: Diane Lane, Raoul Bova and Sandra Oh
A 35-year-old writer moves to Tuscany after her divorce, in order to clear her writer’s block. This movie would give you the hope of moving on, and how good things come to your life if you allow them to.
2. 500 Days of Summer
Cast: Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Zooey Deschanel, Geoffrey Arend and Chloe Grace Moretz
500 days of Summer is one of the most offbeat romantic comedy that you’ve ever seen. As many say, This is not a love story, it is a story about love.
3. Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind
Cast: Jim Carrey, Kate Winslet, Mark Ruffalo, Tom Wilkinson and Elijah Woods
It is one of the most magically cinematographed movies ever. The movie would make you realise, no matter how much sour your past was, it shapes up the present you and your future is somehow going to be better.
4. The Break-Up
Cast: Vince Vaughn and Jennifer Aniston
This is one of the most ironic movies ever made on the break-up, and it’s a complete laughter riot. However, one of the best things about this movie is its realistic portrayal of a relationship at the brink of separation.
5. Amelie
Cast: Audrey Tautou and Mathieu Kassovitz
Everyone out there should see this movie at least once in their life, as it teaches one of the most important lessons of how being alone can be awesome if you wish it to be. Amelie knows how to love small things in life and enjoy living it.
6. Before Sunrise
Cast: Ethan Hawke and Julie Delpy
Before Sunrise is one of the most hopeful movies ever made, it has the perfect recipe for the appealing idea of falling in love with a stranger in a strange land.
7. Magic Mike XXL
Cast: Channing Tatum, Matt Bomer and Joe Manganiello
Now is the time to get over the whole crying over your ex-fiasco, and moving onto drooling over Channing Tatum and Joe Manganiello’s killer stripper skills. This should be an absolute must watch for all the girls out there because girl, You Deserve It.
8. Legally Blonde
Cast: Reese Witherspoon and Luke Wilson
Legally Blonde gives out the strong message of, a girl can achieve what she has set her mind onto. I mean, Elle Woods ends up being accepted in Harvard after getting dumped by her boyfriend. What more do you need?
9. John Tucker Must Die
Cast: Jesse Metcalfe, Brittany Snow, Ashanti, Sophia Bush and Arielle Kebbel.
If you’re planning to take a revenge on your cheating ex, then this movie would definitely help you big time in carrying out various bad-ass revenge tricks.
10. Annie Hall
Cast: Woody Allen and Diane Keaton
Annie Hall was way ahead of its time, as the movie showed the untouched characters of our lives. An independent and strong women, Annie Hall, is everything that a guy would want, yet not in love.
These movies would get you through the dreadful post-breakup scenarios and help you in getting your mojo back. So, get up my friend and ‘Jee le Apni Zindagi’ (after you’re finished watching these movies).
