Best Movies Without Love Stories

A friend of mine asked me to name movies without any sort of romance or love story in it (including any kind of relationship such as boyfriend/ girlfriend, father/daughter. etc) Even if the love story was in it for a few seconds, it couldn't count. I had the hardest time coming up with any movies. So can any of you guys help me out?

I considered the Turkish Bey's attraction to him. Then again, there are no female speaking parts in the entire movie.

^ Are you kidding? That's full of sex and romance.


Spoiler:
We're talking about the gay porn, right?

Re: Best Movies Without Love Stories

Scanning my dvd shelf, I came up with:

Gettysburg
Tora Tora Tora
Blair Witch Project
Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas
Tropic Thunder
Hot Fuzz
Glory
Star Wars:ANH
The Wicker Man


Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

Full Metal Jacket. No prominent women in this film say for that hooker and at the end. And of course some of the VC and some people in that city. That film had no romance and the closet you got was that guy getting obsessed with his gun.

There are tons. In the movie at least, Lawrence's main love interest was himself, obviously.
