April showers bring May flowers — along with soaked shoes, frizzy hair, and a stir-crazy desire to chuck it all and move to the desert. Unless you have a completely different mindset about the rain: It can be the most romantic of all settings, people. Hello, Rachel McAdams and Ryan Gosling.
Okay, in reality, we recommend lingering in the rain to declare your undying love only if it's really, really hot out and you don't mind your shirt becoming transparent.

Here we've gathered nine of our fave scenes from TV and the movies that you can enjoy in the dry comfort of your living room.
