The emotional farewell between Humphrey Bogart and Ingrid Bergman in the 1942 classic film Casablanca has topped a poll of the Most Romantic Moments in cinema history.
Bogart's heart-wrenching invitation to Bergman to board a plane to Lisbon with her husband managed to beat the love scene between Virginia Cherrill and Charlie Chaplin in 1931's City Lights to the top spot.
Gregory Peck's playful teasing of a bemused Audrey Hepburn before the Mouth of Truth from the 1953 romantic comedy Roman Holiday took the third place in the poll conducted by CNN, followed by Burt Lancaster's famous clinch on the beach with Deborah Kerr in 1953's From Here to Eternity.
In fifth place was Audrey Tautou and Mathieu Kassovitz's ecstatic bicycle ride though the streets of Paris from the 2001 French movie Amelie.
Memorable moments from La Dolce Vita, Annie Hall, When Harry Met Sally and Before Sunrise also featured in the top ten.
