My access to thaimovies being only trough p2p (note the 2!), best i've seen so far from LOS was "Bangkok Dangerous". Lotta action & good visuals. Kinda like a John Woo & Wong Kar Wai mix.
Also typical asian "hansum man" leads, so your gf might enjoy it.
With my strongly limited experience with thai movies, if I may, i'll refer you to asian cinema forum (acfmovies), they got lots of stuff, and i'm sure guys will give you more than a handful of suggestions if your question won't be answered to your satisfaction here...

Try this one:
1. Fake (starring by Khun Um / sexiest woman of the year by bangkokpost). Story about triangle love, friendship and betrayal, she was act like a real b***h. DVD and VCD.
2. Khun Tae Pattihan, about eternal love between two close friend and after long time search for true love they become lover. DVD & VCD available.
3. 14 February (Sip Si Kumphan), about love among Thai immigrant in US. DVD and VCD available.
4. Last Life in Universe. About meaning of life, true friendship, love, mafia, family meaning, DVD available. For this one I recommend using DVD because using many mixing language from Japanese, English and Thai so you have to read the Subtitle.

I thought Nang Nak's quite romantic...in a way. Made me go visit her shrine at Wat Mahabut last year.

One that was already mentioned.. February.. I don't think the title has the 14 in it. It's just "Kumphaa-Phan" as in the name of the month in Thai. Decent romantic flick of two lonely Thais, set in NYC. Watchable with a chick.
Then there's Sex Phone, romantic comedy starring one of the D2B (a boy band) guys, he's sort of irritating, as is the female lead at first but she does turn out lovelier towards the end. She's a VJ on Channel V right now. Only for people who have a soft spot for silly thai humor and want to entertain a TG.
I can only think of those two right now. Last thai movie I saw was "I-Fak" which was just in theaters here, sad tale of nasty villagers being nasty to a good-hearted guy who tries to take care of his late father's young and totally cuckoo wife. The female lead has one of most sumptuous bodies you'll ever see on a TG but the "tingtong" look on her eyes and face just ruins it all.
No romance in I-Fak, it's more of a tragedy with some supposedly funny bits thrown in.

AM,
I don't think there's any truth to the claim that thai vcd's are better quality than the dvd's. The DVD is simply a superior format, as long as we're talking about official releases as opposed to pirated bad dvd's of newly released movies, the DVD is always better quality than a VCD. Not much difference in price either, thai dvds are very inexpensive.
of the movies I mentioned, Sex Phone and February are out on vcd/dvd, but I-Fak won't be for a couple of months yet.

Not always true. I've seen quite a lot of 'cheap' legal DVDs than were copied from VDO or VCD without any remastering at all.
To get a better quality, a lot of original older movies (especially the ones from abroad) have to be enhanced and remastered fro release on DVD.

i also thought the DVD's were better too...i guess she was referring to the pirate ones.
i don't know if I got ripped off or not but I paid $15 USD for the " phan chan " VCD here in the US ( good sound/pic, CD x2 ).

Other Movies:
'Butterfly Man' Set in Koh Samui, got a bloke who used to be in Eastenders in it. Every cliche under the sun.
'14 Tulaa' - Move based around the student demonstrations in 1973
Ong Bak - Martial Arts, quite well known, DVD got no English subtitles as yet.
Goodman Town - Action
'Satree Lek 1 & 2' Based on a story about a sports team consisting of katoeys.
'Phrang Chompoo' (Saving Private Tootsie) Has some funny moments, starring Som-O, and also Ad Carabao.
'Jan Dara' - Love triangle set around the 2nd world war.
'Khang 8' - Butterfly in Grey. I enjoyed this one, but it is so disjointed it's hard to follow.
Got a cupboard full of them, haven't watched them all yet, probably could list a few more if I
