The final scene between Humphrey Bogart and Ingrid Bergman in Casablanca has been named the 'Most Romantic Moment' in cinema.

Rick's farewell to Ilsa at the end of the 1942 World War II classic beat Virginia Cherrill and Charlie Chaplin's love scene from 1931's City Lights.

Gregory Peck teasing Audrey Hepburn at the Mouth of Truth in 1953 romantic comedy Roman Holiday took third position in the poll by CNN.

Burt Lancaster's famous clinch with Deborah Kerr in 1953's From Here to Eternity came in fourth, followed by Audrey Tautou and Mathieu Kassovitz's bicycle ride through Paris in 2001 French film Amelie.
