Who is your favorite fictional couple, and why?

I have never been so captivated by the back-and-forth pattern of any couple in a work of art as with these two in this film. The combination of respect, contempt, longing, witty barbs, internal tensions, situational stressors, undeniable spark and magnetism, chemistry, and dark forces pulling them irrevocably apart are absolute dynamite. Plus they look so good while doing all of it!

Maybe because my own parents fought so much, it was comforting to see such a glamorous couple who also fought a lot, but in a way that made it clear they actually loved and respected each other deeply. (less)
