Let's be honest, Netflix's Bridgerton has left our hearts pining over the dashing Viscount. Not to mention, his deeply swooning "bane of my existence" speech obviously!
But alas, season three's premier is still eons away as filming's just started. For the yearning hearts, now's the time to fill the void by binge watching other romantic period tales.
Our verdict? You'll still get to swoon over the charming faces, and maybe shed a few tears along the way! Here are 5 movies to get you started:
Pride & Prejudice (2005)
If you aren't swayed by the charming Mr Darcy, then we don't know who else can.
Atonement (2007)
Once again, Keira Knightley takes the cake in showmance. Enough said, you'll need loads of tissues watching this.
Anna Kerenina (2012)
A married aristocrat gets her pearls tangled in the arms of a certain Count Vronsky. Was their love affair a happy ending? This was also Keira Knightley's third running streak in this category (not that we're complaining).
Emma (2020)
The stunning Anya Taylor-Joy takes on the role of posh Emma Woodhouse from one of Jane Austen's acclaimed novels.
Persuasion (2022)
Between Dakota Johnson's sweet British accent and Henry Golding's Regency-era suave, we can't help but fawning over both.
