Sound of Music
Some Like It Hot
Skyfall (or any James Bond really)
For comfort TV Randall & Hopkirk Deceased from the 1960s is also great - it's usually on one of the free UK satellite channels

You've got Mail.

Mostly for the cosiness but also for the nostalgic days of early internet/email before it all went mad!

It actually does make me want to buy "bouquets of newly sharpened pencils". 🥰

So many I agree with, but any of the Shrek films will always stop me searching and just emit waves of comfort.

Ooh yes, Mrs Harris goes to Paris. That’s a cracker……

This has made me nostalgic.

I never watch films anymore. Back in my teenage years (pre internet) I had a large collection of vhs then later dvds and used to watch movies all the time in my room, forced to watch the same things more than once due to lack of options. I very rarely do that now apart from at Xmas and I miss it.

Anything Hugh Grant from 90’s
Disney
Clueless
Parent trap
