Just because it’s Valentine’s Day doesn’t mean you have to have the whole give-a-dozen-red-roses, watch-the-sappiest-movie-you-can-find, make-reservations-at-a-French-restaurant kind of a day. But even creativity doesn’t mean you have to forgo that all-time favorite activity of cuddling on the couch with a box of candy and watching a great flick.

This year, try something new and watch a movie you wouldn’t normally consider. It’ll make for a special (and unforgettable) Valentine’s Day, whether you’re going to watch with your sweetheart, your mother, your little brother, or your best friend. Don’t forget the popcorn!

Amelie

You’ll never find a girl more adorable than Amelie, an Audrey Hepburn-esque girl who finds a hidden treasure chest in her apartment and goes on an imaginative, charming hunt to return the items to their owner. This movie is a delight, and it’ll help you remember to celebrate even the small things in life and love.
