If these are my 4 favourite films, what else would I like?

[FilmFaves]

The Talented Mr Ripley
Out of Africa
When Harry Met Sally
A Room With A View

I’m sick in bed so need something to watch to take my mind off it!

Thanks.

Fried green tomatoes at the whistle stop cafe (feel like I have that title wrong but it is something very similar!)

I love 'The Talented Mr Ripley' but I've never really found a film that compares to it.

Other films I've enjoyed with male protagonists trying to hide from their crimes are 'Catch me if you can' 'Wall Street' and 'Rogue Trader'. Not as good as Ripley, though.

I remembered that I also love Little Miss Sunshine!

Catch Me If You Can is a great film. I might rewatch that one. Thanks.

That's right @OnlyToWin - lovely film but very different to the book

Driving Miss Daisy

The English Patient
Sleepless in Seattle
Much Ado About Nothing

Sunshine Cleaning

Operator (2016)

Memento

Covering crimes films: hmmm
The Shawshank Redemption best film of all time
The Tourist with Jolie and Depp, just for watching beautiful scenery
Knives out was really good, not sure it is it out yet though?

I watched Withnail and I for the umpteenth time last week and it cheered me up for days.

Also, you could try An Education, Shadowlands, Military Wives or The Great Gatsby?

Ladybird is on Netflix and is a quirky but lovely film.

Ladies in Black - also massively easy viewing and very gentle - the perfect convalescing film!!

Sideways
Evil Under the Sun
Death on the Nile
A Passage to India

(Trying to think of crime and a beautiful setting although no crime in Sideways but it is set in the Napa Valley I think and there's "romance" if you can call it that).

Julie and Julia?

Educating Rita

If you liked Little Miss Sunshine, try Muriel's Wedding.

Second Educating Rita and Withnail.

If you want to go old style, try An Affair to Remember (get the tissues)

The Piano
The Vanishing
Harold & Maude (if you can find it anywhere)

There's also a film with Geoffrey Rush in which is called The Best Offer or Deception depending on where you are, it seems to have different names in different countries. DH and I watched it a couple of years ago and both agreed it was the best one we'd seen in a long time

Muriel’s Wedding is ace!

Knives out is on Prime - great cast, good movie
Miss Petigrew Lives For a Day
Inception
The Departed ( violent in places, but I loved it)

Another vote for Fried Green Tomatoes
Cinema Paradiso
Best Exotic Marigold Hotel
Finding Your Feet (good UK cast)
Truly Madly Deeply
Maybe Sex & The City Film 1? Definitely not the sequel.

Lady in the van (based on a true story)

Slumdog Millionaire

Some amazing ideas. Thank you!

I used to love Muriel’s wedding. Haven’t seen it for years. Also love Memento and Sideways. Just remembered Heavenly Creatures too!

Somebody on another thread mentioned Shirley Valentine which I haven't seen for ages but is a heart film

Ripley's Game - with John Malkovich - might be a contender.

Safety not guaranteed

Handful of dust
English patient
Remains of the day
