The Ultimate Guide to Relationships.
These "perfect pairs" come from a variety of fictional regimes: television
from the 70's to computer games of the 90's and beyond! Unforgettable
Pairs has been split into two parts: Films and More soulmates
(below) and Television Soulmates
Christian and Satine
Moulin Rouge
If you haven't yet seen
"Moulin Rouge", go see it now. I mean it. Drop everything
and be swept away. This is the best film I've seen since TPM, and for
once, the critics agree with me too! It's pure magic from the moment we
see the haunted Christian, tears, tragedy. The music which surrounds this
romance of epic proportions sweeps you away, and it's heartbreaking in the end
as both find - and lose - their first and only love.
"A love which will last forever," are Christian's
final words as he continues on. MovieWeb
review
Jack Dawson and Rose De Witt Bukater
Titanic
Everyone knows the story of Titanic, and now the tale of the
tragic soulmates is one that will also be long remembered. Rose, the wealthy
yet unhappy young lady met poor Jack, someone who would change her life
forever. He inspired her dreams, she ignited his spirit, and together,
they could achieve anything.
Until that fateful night; and the end of Jack's life as he simply slipped
away. Rose carried him in her heart...forever. So what makes them
classified as soulmates? Quite simply, that final scene in
the film where they can be together for all time.

Danielle and Prince Henry
Ever After
The Cinderella story is timeless, beautiful, and evocative of true
soulmates. This is played out to perfection in Ever After
- the poor servant girl who meets the priince and sparks fly! What
makes this romance even more endearing is they took the time to get to
know one another, all the while Danielle believing it could never be.
After many (outrageous) trials involving capture by gypsies, a misfortune-filled
ball and the evils of the stepmother, love conquered all and the pair were
married. Truly, they lived happily Ever After.
Ever After
Guybrush Threepwood and Elaine Marley
Monkey Island
"Monkey Island" is one of those rare, under-appreciated things that
everyone seems to miss. (Okay, so it was a computer game, but still! The
romance! The tragedy! The desperate trials to save the one he loved!)

LeChuck : The Deep Darkness. Read all about
Guybrush and Elaine when they meet Mulder and Scully in this fanfic extravaganza!

Sandy and Danny
Grease
Grease will always be remembered for the music, but it is also
an incredibly romantic tale. Not only is there the typical girl-longing-for-boy;
we also hear some very sweet ballads from a lonely Danny. The pair
who spent one magic summer together before enduring hardships (albeit childish)
which threatened their relationship before they were finally reunited.
Flying off into the sunset only heightens the magical quality of this tale
as Sandy and Danny went to their 'happily ever after'. True soulmates.
Harry and Helen Tasker
True Lies
Let's all take a moment here- True Lies managed to portray a
romantic and hot relationship between a husband and a wife! Now that
is something different. Harry and Helen are therefore well deserving
of their place on this page. He was absolutely devestated when he
thought she was cheating on him (and this one scene inspired
my fanfic!), and she loved her husband regardless of the times he
kept letting her down. In the end, they shared all their secretes
and remained happily married.

Romeo and Juliet
Romeo and Juliet
It was love at first sight. The young couple only had only one night
together, but each meeting was so intense, so full of passion. Each believed
they could not live without the other, and their tale of woe ended in tragedy
when the star-crossed lovers took their own lives. In a sense, they became
eternal soulmates.
Romeo

Scarlett O'Hara and Rhett Butler
Gone With the Wind
Almost everyone knows the story of Scarlett and
Rhett.
"Oh, Rhett, Rhett! Whatever shall I do??"
Was there ever another couple like them?? The embodiment of southern
charm and the king of the Scoundrels! sigh
Scarlett would never love anyone but Ashley, or so she thought.
Rhett charmed his way into her life, married her, gave her a child, and
only at the end when it was too late, did Scarlett realise that he'd charmed
his way into her heart as well.

Queen Elizabeth the First of England and Lord Robert
Elizabeth (the film)
They were so passionate about eachother, it is a shame their relationship
ended so tragically.
This is one of the best examples on film of how absolute power can
corrupt even pure things such as love.
They start out as friends, then lovers and later betray each other,
but anyone can tell that they still love one another though they have become
icy and frigid. After all, she saved his life to punish and remind herself.
William Shakespeare and Viola de Lesseps
Shakespeare in Love
So, the story is Shakespeare is trying to write a play which will ultimately
become Romeo and Juliet, and among the actors is a mysterious boy
called Thomas Kent. He, or rather she, turns out to be the Lady Viola,
a girl from a rich family who wants to be an actor. They fall madly
in love with each other, but unfortuneatly she's bethrothed to Lord Wessex...

George and Mary Bailey
It's a Wonderful Life
The ultimate passionate love between two becomes clear throughout this
classic film. It's

Johnny Castle & Baby (Francis) Houseman
Dirty Dancing
Whilst on summer vacation, Baby is brought together with dancer Johnny
after helping out another member of staff.
As well as becoming his dance partner, Baby teaches Johnny about "standing
up to other people, no matter what it cost them." and about the kind of
guy he wants to be.
Johnny, in turn teaches Baby about the harsh reality of life. Together
they make the perfect couple. Classic case of Opposites
attract!
Oscar Hopkins and Lucinda Leplastia
Oscar and Lucinda
Unrequited love on both sides. In both the novel and the film we meet
two people who love each other genuinely. Partly because they feel
no one else will love them, partly because they are so close they can not
be apart. They had quite a mad world and we were all saddened when it crashed
to an end in either version.
Oscar and Lucinda
Margot and La Môle
La Reine Margot (Queen Margot)
Classic historical literature tells the tale of how the spoiled and
abused princess of France finds herself and true love in a time of turbulence,
decadence and danger. She starts out rotten and despicable but ends up
a superb feminine figure, and he
must be one of the most romantic male figures ever - both lover and
fighter.
Veronica Franco and Marco Venier
Dangerous Beauty
Don't you just love it when the couple can not get together at all
in the beginning and then slowly and painfully manage to get to it with
more problems than you like to think of? In this true story Veronica
becomes a courtesan as she can not marry her true love Marco, because of
some status differences (glad to leave the 17th century, anyone?).
He then marries someone else and she sleeps with all of Venice. But it
has class and lush romance. Who can say no?

Beauty
Bertram Cates and Rachel Brown
Inherit the Wind
Most likely no one remembers them anymore, but anyone who has seen
Inherit the Wind, a play/movie based on the Scopes Trial, will
agree, thiers was a beautiful love. It was dangerous, she was the
daughter of the Reverend, and he was teaching Darwin, a mortal sin the
eyes of the townspeople-and against the law. He opened her eyes,
and when the case was appealled, and they rode off into the sunset together.
In the play, they only loved each other. In the movie, they were
actually involved. Either, they are true soulmates.
Inherit
the Wind
Sam and Molly
Ghost
Sam and Molly, the perfect modern couple, had everything until he was
brutally murdered one night. Sam loved her so much that he couldn't leave
this world until he knew she was safe. With the help of a once-fraud
medium (resulting in hilarious consequences!) he was able to touch his
love one last time, before moving on to the next realm in a tragic finish.
Truman Burbank and Sylvia, aka "Lauren Garland"
The Truman Show
This couple really exemplifies the soulmate principle. Truman was born in captivity, with his life planned out
for him in the smallest detail, right down to the woman he would marry. But when he fell in love with Sylvia,
nothing that his captors did could end that love or break the bond between him and his soulmate. They took
her from him, leaving him with nothing but her sweater and a picture cobbled from magazine scraps. But his
love (and hers) persevered, and at the end of the film he escapes his prison, and Sylvia is waiting for him,
in a touching triumph of true love between true soulmates.
