Live Poll: I Would Walk 500 Miles and I Would Walk 500 More...

I love this idea, Jen. 

"Which would melt your heart and cause you to move them forever?" I guess that should say "love".

FYC:
Pretty Woman - Edward climbs the fire escape carrying a rose to woo Vivian, despite his fear of heights

FYC:

The LotR - Arwen gives up her immortality to be with Aragorn

I really like this idea, too. I'll put on my thinking cap and see if I can think of any suggestions. Oh, one off the top of my head but I don't know if it would fit because -- well, I won't mention one thing because it's a spoiler but the other is that it's a disturbing film... Anyway, The Vanishing
(Rex searches for Saskia for years and then faces great fear and danger by trying to find her through the man who abducted her.)

FYC:

(If you're including animation)
Beauty and the Beast - The Beast gave Belle his entire library while she was still his prisoner

Dirty Dancing - Johnny interrupted a live performance to get Baby out of the corner

When Harry Met Sally - Harry runs to a New Year's Eve party to kiss Sally at midnight

Bridget Jones's Diary - Mark bought Bridget a new diary despite what she had written about him in her old one

FYC:

(If you're including animation, or fairy tale)

-The Little Mermaid: Ariel gave her voice in exchange for feet to be with Eric
-Sleeping Beauty: Phillip fought the dragon to save Aurora
-Cinderella: The price charming searched the entire city to find Cinderella with only her glass shoe

-The Princess Bride: Westley fought bandits, giant, giant rodent, died, came back to life to save Buttercup
-City Lights: The tramp accumulated money to help the blind girl's medication
-City of Angles: Seth fell to earth to become human to be with Maggie
-The Great Gatsby: Gatsby threw a lavish party every night hoping for Daisy to show up, and took crime on his name to protect her.
-Run Lola Run: Lola ran all the way to find money to save her boyfriend
-Titanic: Rose refused to go with the lifeboat to save Jack / Jack gave the raft for Rose to lie on her own
-Groundhog Day: Phil learned everyday on his repeatative life to improve his skills to seduce Rita
-50 First Dates: Henry repeated everyday as new person to Lucy who will forget him the next day, and make her fall in love with him again every single day.
-Brick:  Brendan pushed his way into the underworld of a high school crime ring to investigate the disappearance of Emily

I like this idea, it reminds me of that quote that there is no love, but only proofs of love.

I have a few comments here, not sure how to put it correctly but I think I know why you don't want to include animation and this is why I believe you shouldn't include "Fantasy" movies either. They all generally involve stories where proving one's love or one's worth is a must-show in the narrative, and it always consists of acts of generosity or courage, fighting someone or giving up something, plus they exist in a universe where the hero's life is hardly at stakes, we know he'll make it, he's got to survive to make the story worth it, even Phil Connors knew he couldn't die so he had to give his immortality a meaning.

They sure are proofs of love but we can't seriously expect to see our loved one do them for us, not that I took your question too literally but maybe a 'realistic' approach to the poll would be more interesting..So I'm not sure about Lord of the Rings, Princess Bride, Groundhog Day or City of Angels.

Also, the Love Actually one is pretty much a stalker like Ben Braddock in The Graduate, so I'm not sure he took that many risks to reach her, it was a smart move actually, a romantic way to say "I'm watching you".

As for Slumdog Millionnaire, I thought he wanted to get in the show to become a millionnaire or rich enough so Latika would "accept" him, he didn't know then that she didn't care about the money. He couldn't rely his whole plan on the possibility that she would watch the show. What if she didn't and he lost at the first question? Also, it wasn't a daring move, he had nothing to lose and everything to win.

FYC:

Dog Day Afternoon: Sonny robs a bank to pay his wife Leon's sex-change operation, he ends up in jail.

The Graduate: Elaine Robinson runs away in her wedding dress with Ben, abandoning the premise of a steady life with a rich, young and handsome man for... a dorky immature kid in some bus trip where she started wondering whether she made the right choice.

Roxanne: CD. Bales was so in love with Roxanne that he became the 'ghost writer' to the handsome man she was in love with. In fact, you could include the original; Cyrano de Bergerac, it's possibly the most romantic play after Romeo and Juliet.

In the American President, there was a subplot about some environmental Law President Michael Douglas was going to implement jeopardizing his own political future out of love for Miss Wade (Annette Bening's character) more than personal convictions: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HKTqS4bXugg

Life is Beautiful: the mother went to a Concentration Camp although she wasn't Jewish, of course it was out of motherly love but she loved her husband too.

I get your points but I don't agree with them. I have added your suggestions that I agreed with.

Jamal specifically tells the Millionaire host that the only reason he came on the show was to try to get back with Latika - he didn't care about the money, which was why he didn't walk on the last question even though he didn't know the answer. And when they get back together:

Jamal Malik: I knew you'd be watching.

Latika: I thought we would meet only in death.

Jamal Malik: This is our destiny.

Latika: Kiss me.

---Edit---

I haven't seen Life is Beautiful but it sounds like you're saying the son would have had to go to a camp because he was Jewish and the mother wasn't. But Jews believe the religion follows the mother, so in Nazi's eyes, even though he had a Jewish father, he was not Jewish if his mother wasn't.

Jen,
