Sunday afternoons have their own particular energy, unhurried, slightly nostalgic, perfect for films that take their time. Romance done right, not just love stories, but films that understand what connection actually feels like. All from the 2000s, a decade that produced some of the most ambitious and original films in recent memory. No filler, no disappointments, every film here earned its place.
