In the mood for wine, chocolate, and a movie? You might want to take a peek at this guide to romantic films based on your zodiac sign. When it comes to relationships, movie preferences, and even your personal style [1], your zodiac sign can say a lot about what you like. With the help of astrologist Shannon Hugman [2], we broke down which characteristics each zodiac sign exhibits and chose a few films to keep you (and your partner) entertained on date night, Valentine's Day, and beyond. Of course, your sun sign doesn't have to be the only deciding factor on movie night, so check out the full list of romantic movie recommendations ahead and see which one is your most swoon-worthy match.
Aries Romantic Movies
Your Movie Style: "Aries is all about independence," Hugman said. You are self-reliant and will happily take control of the remote if your partner can't decide what to watch. Sometimes it can be difficult for you to compromise that independence when it comes to relationships, which is why you appreciate movies with protagonists who've experienced what it's like to be hurt and are ready to embark on new journeys of self-discovery.

Taurus Romantic Movies
Your Movie Style: You are all about experiencing the luxuries (big or small) that life has to offer and you know movie night isn't complete without an indulgent dinner and a bold wine to pair with the meal. When you're in a relationship, you are committed and in it for the long haul, ready to experience the ups, downs, and everything in between. You know relationships can take time to foster and grow, which is why slow burn love stories are basically made for you.

For you, relationships are about finding someone who's just as interested in making a positive impact on the world as you are.
