One thing we know for sure is that romance is dead. With everything Sobky’s movies has been throwing our way, cinema has been anything but heart-shattering and soul-wrecking romance. Valentine’s Day is hours away and our robotic souls needs some companionship ASAP.
We need love scenes that are so painful that we simply start thanking God we are nowhere near cheesy love, we demand breakup scenes that will leave us stuffing donuts in our faces at midnight, we want to believe that cliche love quotes are beautiful even if it’s Mai Ezz ElDin saying them, we want the golden romance era back this week.
Let’s reminisce over the strongest love scenes that left Egyptians weeping for decades:
“You hang up first. 1,2,3.” – Now who hasn’t gone there on the phone with a lover in true ‘Elwesada ElKhaleya’ fashion?
‘Habeeby Da2eman’ taught us nothing is da2em in love when death did them apart
Lesson well learnt in ‘Do3a2 ElKarawan’: Never try to fool a player because love’s karma is a killer
Oh my God! That sweet and cheesy pendant scene in the movie ‘Fe Baytona Ragol’ was everything. I can only imagine if a girl does that in 2016, she’ll get dumped.
‘Maw3ed M3 ElMaghoul’. Watch and learn, every female on Mother Earth.
I bet you spent all your teenage years listening to this song from ‘Ayam we Layali’ and writing love letters. Goosebumps every time.
The perfect comeback to the “It’s not you, it’s me” dumping saga in ‘ElSelem Wl Te3ban’. Girls, please study this scene and keep it ready for the next bad boy you date!
Seriously, no comment about Dhafer L’abiding in ‘Ta7t ElSaytara’
I’m constantly asked why I love ‘Omar We Salma’. It’s embarrassing as hell and I have no explanation.
This cheesy as hell line from ‘A7lam 3omrena’ makes so much sense and it became my go-to line when my girlfriends break up…
Scorned wife burrrning her husband in ‘Sahar ElLayali’. Tear-jerking and timeless perfection.
Sigh.
WE SAID THIS: Don’t miss How to Get That 3aris According to Egyptian Mothers.
