You do know Humphrey Bogart was married to a much younger and devastatingly beautiful Lauren Bacall in real life? I would say she was more attractive than him by an unimaginable magnitude. The real world is complicated, movies? Not so much.

Most Romantic Kiss During A Nuclear Explosion:

True Lies.

Okay, it's kind of a silly movie (I mean – Arnold), but that kiss with the flash and mushroom cloud is (as far as I know) one of a kind.

And Jamie Lee Curtis was irresistible in that – there's a dorky/awkward/super-hot dancing scene she does – and with her presence, even an Arnold movie is enjoyable.

"Cheryl Sarkisian[a] was born in El Centro, California, on May 20, 1946. Her father, John Sarkisian, an Armenian-American truck driver with drug and gambling problems, was rarely present during her early life. Her mother, Georgia Holt (born Jackie Jean Crouch), was a model and actress of Irish, English, German and Cherokee descent."

Totally depends on how you define romance. Men are good at "infatuation" style romance but in my experience women are better at the kind of romance where they truly make their significant other feel known ie. Remembering little things about people etc

I feel pretty solid about Severance actually going somewhere after the most recent episode (the one amazingly filmed in Minnewaska State Park) but your trepidation is perhaps still warranted after how Lost let us down.
