Saint Valentine`s Day (commonly shortened to Valentine's Day) is an annual holiday held on February 14 celebrating love and affection between intimate companions. The holiday is named after one or more early Christian martyrs named Valentine and was established by Pope Gelasius I in 496 AD. It is traditionally a day on which lovers express their love for each other by presenting flowers, offering confectionery, and sending greeting cards and spending time together. The holiday first became associated with romantic love in the circle of Geoffrey Chaucer in the High Middle Ages, when the tradition of courtly love flourished.
Modern Valentine`s Day symbols include the heart-shaped outline, doves, and the figure of the winged Cupid. Since the 19th century, handwritten valentines have largely given way to mass-produced greeting cards.
A lot of Hotels, Restaurants, Clubs, Cinemas etc organize special Valentine`s Day programs and offers for couples and this is becoming popular by the day as this way couples can spend quality time together. Here I am going to discuss some interesting typical Valentine`s Day Movies.
