Can I be a leech and ask for good sci-fi romance?

Does the soderbergh version of Solaris count? Or Arrival? Not romance stories but I might say they are love stories.

I thought Arrival was great. Are you talking about the Solaris with Cillian Murphy?

I think you’re thinking of Sunshine with Cillian Murphy (which I love).

Solaris was a remake of a Russian sci fi film staring George Clooney and Natascha McElhone. It’s a movie that’s not for everyone—it’s slow and kinda cerebral for a sci fi film. I really liked it but I’m a slut for Soderbergh films.

Tell me a love story you enjoy and you can leech as much as you like!

I just mentioned Her in another thread. Blade Runner is the obvious choice. Star Trek TNG "Inner light" episode is one of my personal favorites, but it's not strictly romance.
