I love, love, love ‘different sides of the tracks’ romances.
There’s something about two people from opposite backgrounds coming together
and finding how much in common they have that always makes me swoon. Love isn’t

come from very different worlds, and it’s that distance that makes Brit feel
like things will never work between them. But I love a happy ending, so here
are some of my favorite movies exploring couples who seem to have nothing in
common…

after meeting in this movie?

OK, technically it was Bill Pullman’s brother who was the
rich lawyer with a fancy city apartment, but Bill was still a long way from
Lucy’s toll-booth attendant world. (And he looked hot in that cableknit sweater

A sexy gardener? Yes please! Successful lawyer Saana Lathan
wrestles with her family’s expectations (and her own vision of a perfect man)

Two Weeks Notice
Sandra is a crunchy environmentalist; Hugh is a dashing
