Romance is never easy, especially if you're a character in a movie. Things always seem to get in the way, whether it's a family dispute, an impending meteorite attack or a fast-approaching iceberg, the path to true love is uncomfortably rocky.

Despite all this, there are some couples who manage to forge a bond in a rather unconventional manner. Such is the case in the new romantic drama Adam, released on August 7th. Hugh Dancy and Rose Byrne may live next door but communication is never easy. To celebrate the release, we've put together a list of the ten unlikeliest couples in film.
