* In ''Film/BladeRunner2049'' the DarkChick Replicant‘s name of “Luv” [[ThemeNaming symbolises]] this trope like love she can be gentle, kind and passionate but at other times she’s cruel, obsessive, violent and traitorous. Yet in even in act of violence, Luv cries TenderTears which reflects how double sided love is. This also contrasts with the other female character whose name is “Joi” who represents pure positive emotion [[spoiler: thus its fitting when towards the end of the movie where Luv literally destroys Joi]].

* ''Film/ThorLoveAndThunder:'' A theme of the film is that while love can hurt, and losing that love hurts even more, it's better than shutting yourself off from everyone around you in the hopes of avoiding that pain. Of course, since this movie is not entirely serious, the message is delivered by Peter Quill phrasing it in possibly the worst way imaginable.

* Davey Jones The hero of ''Film/FiveHundredDaysOfSummer'' suffers a lot when his love to Summer remains unrequited.
* The central theme of the Mexican film ''Film/AmarTeDuele'', which is about a rich girl
and Calypso's a poor boy who fall in love with each other, but society tries to keep them apart. It's even in the meaning of the title!
* ''WesternAnimation/BeautyAndTheBeast'': Goodness, the Beast's heartbreak after the uplifting ballroom scene is palpable. As he lets Belle go to her father at the risk of breaking the curse and spending his life with Belle he starts sobbing and finally breaks into a primal scream of despair as Belle gallops away. This is essentially the entire message of the VillainSong in the midquel ''[[WesternAnimation/BeautyAndTheBeastTheEnchantedChristmas Enchanted Christmas]]''.
* In ''Film/BladeRunner2049'' the DarkChick Replicant‘s name of “Luv” [[ThemeNaming symbolises]] this trope like love she can be gentle, kind and passionate but at other times she’s cruel, obsessive, violent and traitorous. Yet in even in act of violence, Luv cries TenderTears which reflects how double sided love is. This also contrasts with the other female character whose name is “Joi” who represents pure positive emotion [[spoiler: thus its fitting when towards the end of the movie where Luv literally destroys Joi]].
** Speaking of Joi, her
relationship in with the ''Franchise/PiratesOfTheCaribbean'' movies. Yeah, that ended well.Replicant protagonist K screams this trope, in spite of both of them being artificial their love for each other is genuine. Therefore their love mixed with tragedy since Joi is a hologram whom K cannot touch and her feelings may be completely manufactured. [[spoiler: Then again the moments before Luv destroys Joi, he reaches for her and she reaches for him saying she loves him before being removed from existence by Luv. While it’s up for audience interpretation, K and Joi’s feeling were real to them which is what really counts]].
* One of the major themes of the musical ''{{Theatre/Camelot}}''. Love a woman? She's either married to your best friend or having an affair with your best friend. Love a man? He's either married to your girlfriend or having an affair with your wife. Love two men? You've made one of them a cuckold and the other a traitor. And you just can't seem to stop.



* ''Film/TheHungerGames'': This trope is one of the two main reasons why Katniss Everdeen is so reluctant to admit to herself that she's falling in love.

And as if the romantic Love Hurts weren't enough, a little girl has to leave her friend and they're both heartbroken because of it.
* ''Film/LawrenceOfArabia'': Towards the end of the movie, T.E. Lawrence has failed in nearly every regard, and been through [[RapeAsDrama hell]] on the way. Sherif Ali, one of his most faithful allies (as well as his lover, according to WordOfGay), storms out angrily after realizing just how shattered Lawrence is, which leads to this exchange with [[TeethClenchedTeamwork Auda abu Tayi]].

* The whole point of ''Film/ScottPilgrimVsTheWorld'' ... in this case love multiplies itself by seven and storms into town on a homicidal rampage.
** Poor Scott. As one tagline approximately reads: ''Scott Pilgrim has no trouble finding a girlfriend. It's getting rid of them that proves difficult.''
