So many movies have a love story that just doesn't seem necessary. In your opinion, what is the best movie without a love story?

- no sex scene
- no decisions based off of love for someone else
- nothing where a sexual relationship plays a part

Moana! Maybe not the obvious choice, but as a father to a toddler daughter I'm excited for her to watch Disney movies that aren't about finding a prince.

Nope. The Hunt for Red October is absolutely a love story. Love was the impetus for the movie. Ramius would never have defected if it wasn't for the his wife's negligent death at the hands of the State.

It literally opens up with a girl running out into the ocean waiting for a guy to swim out there so they can have sex.

By those standards I guess Death Hunt with Charles Bronson wouldn't qualify.

Dead Poets Society was all wrapped up in girls and sex.

Don't see how their relationship violates any of the 3 points in OP.

Bourne 2 and 3 happened because they killed his girl from movie 1.
