What's your 'comfort food' film?

[OrangeGinLemonFanta]

I'm home alone briefly and feel like crap. I'm watching Captain Marvel again. The familiarity is soothing.

Far from the Madding Crowd (2015)!

Sweet home Alabama, it’s what I put on in the background when I’m too tired and emotional for sleep to come easy. I like to sleep with background noise if I am sleeping during the day after night shifts. Unfortunately yesterday it was half of a 4hr marathon of hoarders or how clean is your house or something, not good for my mental health that one.

Apollo 13. A movie that has everything.

From Dusk til Dawn or Muriel's Wedding.

Funny you ask because I watched My Big fat Greek wedding last night on Amazon and it's definitely become a comfort food film! Never knew how funny it was.

Most romcoms/family type comedies & fantasy are comfort food to me. All these I've seen millions of times and will continue to whenever I feel down or lonely:

While you were Sleeping
Mystic Pizza
Amelie
Stardust
Practical Magic
Bridget Jones
Romy & Michelle
The Crow
Harry Potter
Lord of the Rings
Eurovision (love it, it's already hit comfort status for me!)

Jaws and Muriels Wedding.

Rio Bravo
Mr Blandings Builds His Dream House
The Secret Life of Walter Mitty

Also recently saw midnight in Paris and loved that as I love anything to do with Paris, all the music and scenery was brill.

There’s loads of good films on here I’ve forgotten about.

Mine are The Proposal and Wimbledon, the film. I used to have it recorded on my Virgin box but I lost it when they replaced the box. Gutted because they hardly ever show it anymore.

I can’t not watch Dirty Dancing if it’s on.

I quite like Harry Potter, but if I watch one I have to watch them all.
