niche fandom:
... like the 2011 The Eagle???
YES! (But also the book)
There's stuff from the book that I wish had made it into the movie- Like Cub, or when Esca almost got them both killed because he's such an overly dramatic actor that he nearly fell off his horse, or the Centurion's Hound speech. But the movie is just lush.
And the alternate ending is great. Instead of the 'What now?' 'You decide.' scene in the Senate, they literally walk off into the distance arguing about where to spend their lives together. 'A farm... in Spain... With horses.'

reason:
It's enemies-to-lovers in the best way. And the sexual tension is delicious.
