Spin's 20 Films Where Love Hurts, Love Scars, Love Wounds & Mars

"The notion of what constitutes love is multifaceted and inherently contextual, despite the significant cultural conditioning suggesting, not only universality, but the dangerous superficiality of the happily-ever-after syndrome supposedly accompanying the discovery of it. We're trained to be made vulnerable to the fantastical high and the temporary insanity of new love while blindly ignoring how it's destined to warp and corrode beneath the unpredictable realities of life. But for the bold and experienced, there exists a dizzying amount of global narratives exploring the dark side of love, where the confrontation of the necessary sacrifice to keep it going often leads to various toxicities and formidable codependency. For those who embrace the inherent miserablism of adoration, here's a list of obsessions, murder, and madness which represent the comorbidity accompanying passion, desire, and adulation." - spin.com
