He's Just Not That Into You
If you think that holding hands with your beloved in a darkened movie theater while sniffling through a tearjerker is the definition of a great date, you’re going to love some of the movies playing at your local cinema over the next month or two. Here are four that are perfect for popcorn and passion (not to mention shedding a few tears).

Slumdog Millionaire
Slumdog Millionaire
Synopsis: Starcrossed childhood sweethearts from the poverty-stricken slums of Mumbai, India are reunited in this inspiring, heartfelt story of hope and redemption. Jamal Malik (Dev Patel), an 18 year-old orphan from the slums of Mumbai, who is about to experience the biggest day of his life. With the whole nation watching, he is just one question away from winning a staggering 20 million rupees on India’s “Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?”
But when the show breaks for the night, police arrest him on suspicion of cheating; how could a street kid know so much? Desperate to prove his innocence, Jamal tells the story of his life in the slum where he and his brother grew up, of their adventures together on the road, of vicious encounters with local gangs, and of Latika (Freida Pinto), the girl he loved and lost. Each chapter of his story reveals the key to the answer to one of the game show’s questions. Each chapter of Jamal’s increasingly layered story reveals where he learned the answers to the show’s seemingly impossible quizzes. But one question remains a mystery: what is this young man with no apparent desire for riches really doing on the game show? When the new day dawns and Jamal returns to answer the final question, the Inspector and sixty million viewers are about to find out. At the heart of its storytelling lies the question of how anyone comes to know the things they know about life and love.

MVL Valentine’s Day Countdown Tip #4:
Passion Play
As romantic as movies can be, on the big day, consider a theatrical outing instead. Musicals by Lloyd Weber, or Rogers and Hammerstein. Dramas by O’Neill or Mamet. Comedies by Wasserstein or Simon—all incite passion with words or song. For putting romance front row and center in your hearts, the play’s the thing!
