Feel Good Films



It's going to be one of those days today - so I'll be in need of a really good film tonight to uplift me, entertain me and possibly make me laugh or cry.

I'm not a huge contemporary Rom-com fan, I prefer the classics. So I've narrowed it down to one of these:
Roman Holiday
The Philadelphia Story
Gregory's Girl
The Odd Couple
The Adventures of Robin Hood
Singing in the Rain

What are your favourite feel good films? The first person to mention Love Actually will automatically go on ignore! :lol:

Roman Holiday? man the ending is so heart breaking!

I'd add:

Guys & Dolls
Arsenic & Old Lace
The Palm Beach Story
Sullivans Travels
It's a Wonderful Life
Silver Linings Playbook
The musical episode of Buffy:oops:
 
My Holland's Opus, really good feel good film that leaves a lump in your throat.
Pay It Forward, ending will have you bawling your eyes out.
A Dog's Purpose, I defy anybody not to get misty eyed watching this!
 
The Perks of Being a Wallflower
Me and Earl and The Dying Girl

Both might fall slightly outside feel good to some though!
 
And while there’s a mention of musicals. Much better if you have the sound to go with the pics. Me bairn has grown up watching them, hence the animated stuff, with me so I’m a bit sentimental and whatnot.

Grease - Olivia. Fit as a bloody lop
Hairspray - blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice and every day should be negro day, what’s not to love
Wizard of Oz - probably best for Christmas - dinnar why
Chitty chitty bang bang - probably best for Easter - dinnar why
Shrek - the first one I saw, ignore the Donkey but did like the line “in the morning we’re making waffles”
Bugsy Malone
That new un with Hugh - The Greatest Showman - watched it with the bairn last weekend - canny.
Wall-E not much singing but this film is topper
Moana it’s got the Haway haway song in it man
Jungle Book ooh be doo ffs...
And Singin In The Rain - sponsored by Quincy and Phillips
 
MOANA - deffo (out of recent stuff)

apart from that, I think all the best ones have already been mentioned.

oh, Dumb & Dumber - love that, like!
