What are some of the best villain love stories in literature and movies?

In 'Thor: Ragnarok', Hela's origin is quite interesting. She was Odin's first - born, but her thirst for power and Odin's decision to banish her led to her becoming a villain. She had a legitimate claim to the throne, but her violent ways made her the antagonist. Also, Hannibal Lecter from 'The Silence of the Lambs' has a chilling origin. His refined and cultured exterior hides a deeply disturbed and violent past, which was shaped by his own psychological issues and possible early - life traumas.

One of the best is the relationship between Maleficent and Stefan in 'Maleficent'. Their love turned into a bitter feud. Once they were childhood friends and in love, but Stefan's ambition led him to betray Maleficent, which then made her into the 'villain' we know, yet the root of it was their love story.

In the movie 'Gone Girl', Amy Dunne fakes her own disappearance which is sort of a form of 'cheating' in a way on her husband Nick. She manipulates the situation to make him look bad. It's a complex story of a marriage gone wrong.

One example could be in the movie 'Fatal Attraction'. The mistress's inappropriate and over - the - top actions can be seen as part of a complex relationship drama that involves elements that could be related to such a concept in a more metaphorical sense. However, it's important to note that these are often used to show the consequences of infidelity rather than glorifying it.

One of the classics is 'Romeo and Juliet' by Shakespeare. It's a timeless tale of forbidden love.

One of the best love stories is 'Romeo and Juliet' by Shakespeare. It's a tragic tale of two young lovers from feuding families. Their love is so intense that they are willing to defy their families and society. Another great one is 'Pride and Prejudice' by Jane Austen. Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy's relationship develops from misunderstandings to deep love through various encounters and self - discovery. Also, 'Wuthering Heights' shows a passionate and complex love between Heathcliff and Catherine, a love that endures even after death.

Pride and Prejudice' is also a great one. Elizabeth Bennet and Mr. Darcy start off with misunderstandings and prejudices against each other.

Well, 'Wuthering Heights' is a classic. Heathcliff and Catherine's love is wild and passionate. It's a love that defies the social norms of their time and endures through death. Then there's 'Sense and Sensibility' also by Jane Austen. The love stories within it, like that of Marianne and Colonel Brandon, show different aspects of love - from the passionate to the more steady and reliable. 'A Walk to Remember' by Nicholas Sparks is a moving love story too. A popular boy falls in love with a shy and religious girl who has a terminal illness, and their love changes him for the better.

The story of 'Tristan and Isolde' also has elements of a very intense love. Their love is so powerful that it defies the norms and rules of society. The passion between them is a central part of the legend, though it is not as explicitly erotic as the previous two, but still a great love story.
