It was the golden age of romantic comedies and dramas and the time when some of the most famous actors like Julia Roberts, Meg Ryan, Cameron Diaz, Leonardo DiCaprio, Brad Pitt and many others grew up.
They created fashion trends in the segments of clothing, make-up and hairstyles, and they also had "that something", which set them apart from the crowd of other films and which keeps us coming back to them again and again, no matter how many years have passed since the release of the film.
Below we present you some of the best and most beautiful films of the 90s of the last century.
Sleepless in Seattle (1993)

Pretty Woman (1990)
The love story that brought together two people from two completely different worlds is still one of the favorites, and the chemistry between actors Julia Robert and Richard Gere cannot be denied.
The film follows Edward, who no longer wants to be hurt and heartbroken, so he decides to find a lady for one night and then a companion to go with him to prestigious events. He stumbles upon Vivian, and what follows puts the film on the list of the most popular and best romance movies of all time.
Before Sunrise (1995)
A film intended for those who love art, long debates and at the same time the simplicity and rawness of life.
The young American Jesse (Ethan Hawke) is traveling on a train through Europe with the young French woman Céline (Julie Delpy). They immediately fall in love and decide to get off the train in Vienna and spend a day together. Talkative and open, Jesse and Céline touch on many topics, from love and first feelings to reincarnation and art. Of course, they try to present each other in the best light...
In 2004, the sequel Before Sunset (Before Sunset) was filmed, and in 2013, Pred polnočjo (Before Midnight), which reveal what happens to the characters over the years.
The Man in the Moon (1991)
The extent to which love can destroy sisterly relationships and bring happiness and pain at the same time is best seen in the film in which Reese Witherspoon played one of her first roles. She portrays 14-year-old Dani, who has a 17-year-old sister, Maureen.
On hot summer nights, they talk about romance, the future and the meaning of life. When a 17-year-old boy moves in next door, the summer goes in a completely different direction than the sisters expected. With him, Dani experiences her first, true, perfect love, and then she meets Maureen...
Titanic (1997)
When Titanic hit theaters in 1997, tissues became a necessary prop when watching the movie. The film, based on the true event of the sinking of the Titanic, brings us the unforgettable love story of poor Jack (DiCaprio) and Rose (Kate Winslet), who are forced by their mother to marry a rich but corrupt man who should save them from financial ruin .
Everything else is history, and quotes from the movie have become part of modern culture.
Love on Skates (The Cutting Edge, 1992)
That love often enters our lives completely unexpectedly is confirmed by the film, which follows the life of professional hockey player and Olympian Doug, who cannot play as actively as he used to due to an injury.
On the other side of the story is Kate, a talented figure skater who wants to win a medal at the Olympics, but a serious injury knocks her out of the competition for that year. Quite by chance, they have to train together and recover from injuries, and due to many arguments and disagreements, a love of epic proportions is born. This acclaimed film is ideal for viewing on winter days.
Romeo + Juliet (Romeo + Juliet, 1996)
Leonardo DiCaprio and Claire Danes brought us Shakespeare's classic in a modern way. It is a reinterpretation of the iconic love affair, and many agree that director Luhrmann managed to make one of the most original and best versions. Although he set the story in a modern American city, Luhrmann built the entire film around Shakespeare's original dialogues, which, combined with the film's extremely lucid visual identity, still provide the viewer with an unparalleled, ecstatic cinematic experience.
The story, of course, follows the well-known forbidden love story of Romeo and Juliet, whose families fell out, and despite the tragic ending, the film gives a completely new look at the literary classic and the belief that true love exists, no matter how short-lived it is.
Notting Hill (1999)
William (Hugh Grant) is the somewhat confused owner of a small London bookshop. When he's not working, he spends time with his lively sister Honey, his best friend Max and his wife Bella, and his roommate Spike. Then one day a world star, American actress Anna Scott (Julia Roberts), enters his bookshop and life, presenting her latest film in London.
When they meet again moments later on the street, William accidentally spills orange juice on her, so Anna agrees to stop at his apartment across the street to change clothes... And so another unique love story is born.
Forrest Gump (1994)
Another hit of Tom Hanks is the movie Forrest Gump, in which he showed a whole range of his acting abilities.

Kennedy, receives a medal for bravery in Vietnam, meets Lyndon Johnson, speaks at an anti-war rally at the Washington Monument, etc. But what really fills his heart is Jenny, the girl he met and loved when he was a boy, and who he can never forget. Many years later, their lives are intertwined again.
Meet Joe Black (1998)
No list of 90s movies can be complete without Brad Pitt, and one of his best is definitely When Joe Black Comes.
