What's the movie equivalent of a hug?

[ChickeningOut]

I need one. I have a severe cold and I'm so sore and weak I can barely move and my mental health has crashed. (Small violin playing in the distance)

Yesterday I lay on the couch and watched all of Gandhi and today I'd like something easy or gentle to watch that doesn't require me to try to remember fifty plot points and relationships. Any suggestions would be appreciated. TIA

The Notebook. Then you can cry your cold out!

Hope you feel better soon.

The Devil Wears Prada has always been a feel good movie to cheer me up when I'm poorly.

Field of dreams

"A little chaos" with Kate Winslet. I liked it so much when I first saw it I watched it the next week too.
It's really gentle but good.

Christ, who way to these suggestions!

Disney and Pixar all the way here. Musicals, fluffiness, song, childish happiness without the adult expectations. Lush.

Frozen, Moana, Toy Story, that sort of thing.

Agree with kids’ films. I recommend Bill, every time I watch it with the dc I giggle at something new.

Thank you for all the suggestions so far. I love dramas and these aren't ones that I've seen, though right now I'll watch anything vaguely comforting.

Up

NC Fail. My brain has officially left the building. I'm looking forward to burying myself in these films though, perhaps that will revive me a little.

Groundhog Day

The Graduate
84 Charing Cross Road

'Fried Green Tomatoes'

Singing in the Rain or Groundhog Day

My feel good film is actually a Christmas one but I don't care I will watch it anytime.

It's The Bishops Wife with the lovely Cary Grant and David Niven.

Fried Green Tomatoes

The Pursuit of Happyness

Matilda, I still love watching it as an adult.

Bridget Jones's Diary

Why all the sad films, surely you need something happier? Would Gavin and Stacey episodes do the job? Or the office?

Princess Bride

Mine is Room with a view or if I'm really ill the whole of Pride and prejudice (Colin firth version obviously).

When I was ill recently I watched Dumplin on Netflix. I do a great Dolly impression when I'm croaky (and there's no one around to hear me!)

Get well soon

'Angus, Thongs and French Kissing'

@ohdearmymistake

I love The Bishop's Wife - Cary Grant as an angel

Dumplin on Netflix
Bridget Jones Baby
Leap year
The Switch

About Time. Lovely and life-affirming and guaranteed to bring happy tears.
