For the last hundred years or so, movies have pretty much told the exact same love story again and again. Boy meets girl, they become infatuated with one another, hijinks ensue, and after several trivial misunderstandings they fall in love and live happily after. However, as anybody over the age of sixteen can attest, love is fairly more complex and complicated than that. Life isn't always a Meg Ryan movie. Indeed, oftentimes love doesn't fit into a cookie-cutter view of the world and occasionally a filmmaker will break the shackles of romantic comedy clichés to put a fresh spin on an age old story (for better or for worse). With that said, today we've compiled a list of film's most odd love stories. We've all seen them... movie love stories that made us go "WTF?!" rather than "awwww". Some are doomed from the start, some find a way to make it work, but all of them will ultimately make us feel better about our own misguided and ill-advised romances. So without further ado, these are the ten most unusual love stories in film history. Hold on to your butts, because it's about to get weird. Don't forget to leave your thoughts in the comment section below. Click "next" below and let's get started.
