What are the characteristics of 'cold hard love stories' in movies?

Often, they involve unrequited love. For example, in many Japanese dramas and movies, one character may love another deeply but the feeling is not reciprocated immediately. This creates a sense of longing and pain.

Another characteristic is the presence of obstacles. These can be social barriers like class differences, family opposition or personal issues such as past traumas or secrets. In 'The Great Gatsby', Gatsby's love for Daisy is hindered by the gap between their social classes and Daisy's own indecisiveness.

One is 'Gone Girl'. It shows a really cold and complex relationship. The couple's love turns into a battle of wits full of lies and manipulations. Another is 'Wuthering Heights'. Heathcliff and Catherine's love is tortured by class differences and their own pride, which is cold and hard in a way.

Hard boiled love novels often feature tough, cynical characters. The love in these novels is not the typical sweet and romantic kind. For example, the characters may have a lot of emotional baggage and past traumas that affect their relationships. There's usually a sense of realism and grit, not just idealized love.

Uncensored Japanese love stories in movies may also explore taboos. Films like 'Shame' might touch on themes that are considered controversial in Japanese society, such as incestuous feelings, but they do so in a way that makes the audience think about the nature of love and human relationships.

In movies, intense real love stories often have strong emotions. For example, in 'Titanic', the love between Jack and Rose is intense. They are from different social classes, but their love overcomes that. The threat of the sinking ship also adds to the intensity.

In movies, a parallel love story often has two or more storylines of love running simultaneously. For example, in 'Love Actually', there are multiple love stories happening at the same time, which can be considered parallel as they are all about different people falling in love in different ways but within the same general context of the Christmas season.

Well, in a 'naked love story' in movies, there is often raw emotion. For example, in the movie 'Blue Valentine', the love between the couple is shown in a very real and unfiltered way. Their joys, sorrows, and conflicts are all out in the open.

One characteristic is the tough - as - nails protagonist. Usually a detective or someone in a rough job. They are cynical and street - smart.

Hard news stories in text form are known for their brevity and directness. They present the essential facts clearly and concisely, often without elaborate descriptions or emotional language. They aim to provide the key information quickly and accurately.
