Feel good films

I was never a great Queen fan, but I have watched Bohemian Rhapsody twice now. Love it

My 3 older DGC would watch The Greatest Showman everyday if they could Sara65 they know every word to every song and even most of the spoken dialogue too . It is a real family feel good film

My go to film is "The Commitments". I once put together a few DVD's for a friend who was feeling down and sent her:

Mary Poppins
Bridget Jones
Love Actually

and several others, but I've forgotten which ones now. I do remember frantically looking for my Mary Poppins and getting another one because I thought I'd lost it. Then my friend sent me the whole lot back so then I had two Mary Poppins!

Oh - and since then, as that was several years ago now, I would add "Brooklyn".

I can't abide modern films. I love the oldies. If you want a few laughs,
Nearest and Dearest The Movie. Hylda Baker & Jimmy Jewell
The Carry On films although some are better than others.
Bless This House The Movie
George and Mildred The Movie
On the Buses films
Naked Gun, Leslie Nielsen

When Harry met Sally

I just watched two good films. ..Lady in the van, with Maggie Smith, she was brilliant, also The green book, can strongly recommend both films ,

Field of Dreams, a totally feel good film. (Can't stand GWTW)

Paint Your Wagon, I have seen it so many times. It's probably because I fell in love with Clint Eastwood in Rawhide.

Try Man Up (Simon Pegg) on Amazon Prime - lovely, funny film.

Oh yes. Yesterday is great. I also love Dances with Wolves.

E.T and will add ‘Yesterday ‘ although it is a new one - I loved it .

Close Encounters of the Third Kind
Stepmom
Enchanted April
Notting Hill
Mr. Holland's Opus
Love Actually
Sleepless in Seattle
Big
Groundhog Day
About Time

Have watched them all many times, whenever I feel a bit down I play one of these and if I get to have a good cry as well, that's perfect!

Went to see "Yesterday" and will probably add that to my collection of feel-good movies too, it was charming and sweet and full of wonderful songs.

I know this is controversial, and a lot of you hate it! But my five year old grandson and I have just watched The Greatest Showman, I love it!

TwiceAsNiceI loved Sidney Poitier in Guess Who's Coming To Dinner with Spencer Tracy and Katherine Hepburn,fabulous film brilliant acting and great script.Its one I love to watch over again when I get the time ..and the peace

Always Be My Maybe on Netflix. It's a breath of fresh air. Totally feelgood.

And there's only one sex scene in it and it's not explicit

A recent one I watched because the grandchildren loved it. It is called A Dogs Purpose. It’s so lovely and it makes you cry
My favourite adult film of all time is To Sir with Love with Sidney Poitier. OMG that man had sex appeal by the bucketful !

My favourite film is Michael. Funny, touching and feel good. Plus John Travolta as an angel, what's not to love ❤️

On Netflix: Hampstead, The Last Laugh ( lovely Richard Dreyfus and Chevy Chase),

The Wife and the Notebook, good films not necessarily feel good.

The hospital drama New Amsterdam is a light watch and I recommend Shtisel.
