With bewitching premises and palpable chemistry between the two leads, romance is among the most favored genres. It's not uncommon, especially when Valentine's approaches, for moviegoers to grab their favorite romantic watches to cuddle up with, fully immersing themselves in the story. Still, while many romances feature incredibly satisfying happy endings, not every one that fits into the category evokes warm and cozy feelings. Sometimes, these romance films are raw, thought-provoking, and exceptionally painful – and viewers thank them for it.
