Can you recommend me a really good uplifting film?

[Poetrypatty]

Any age, preferably Romance or comedy or thriller but not depressing. Even it's a classic, because I'm sure there's gaps where I haven't seen certain things. Any suggestions gratefully received

I loved 'About Time'.

Has Domhnall Gleeson and Rachel McAdams in the main roles, plus a really good supporting cast ( Bill Nighy, Lindsay Duncan, Vanessa Kirkby, Tom Hollander, Lydia Wilson etc.). Romantic comedy with an unexpected uplifting message.

Enchanted April
Cinema Paradiso (in Italian, but subtitles available)

We watched Free Guy the other week. Funny and uplifting.

@DampSquidGames I think maybe it's more me! It's a great film and totally agree about the end being uplifting but I think I get too emotionally involved in films like this (no spoilers! But when the bit when he's having to find somewhere for him and his son to sleep....cried my heart out!)

Anyhoo, I'd recommend 'The Dig'

We watched Free Guy the other week. Funny and uplifting.

Ooo, and this! I thought it was fab, like a virtual 'Truman Show' !

Creepypastard I often think about that bit.
How about Forest Gump?

Bridget Jones baby, the proposal, speed (just for Keanus biceps TBF!) 🤣🤣

Instant family

Juno
Beautiful Thing
Love Simon
Much Ado About Nothing with Emma Thompson

@DampSquidGames

A Beautiful Day in the Neighbourhood.

This is a great film.

Soul.

Watched it as a family, we all loved it.

Pitch Perfect 1 & 2

Kinky Boots...just loved it 🥰

Untouchable - not to be confused with the untouchables. This is a French film about a disabled man and his carer. True story incredibly heartwarming.

The peanut butter falcon - another wonderful film

An easy watch? (I thought it got far more praise than it deserved if I'm honest 🤷‍♀️)

I got it wrong!! It's the The Intouchables

Ooh, had a proper crush on Chewitel Ejiofor when I saw Kinky Boots.

Hear My Song

The high note
The broken hearts gallery
Yesterday

Also Shazam just funny

The Way Way Back - watched it after seeing it recommended on here, great film

Luis Bunuel, Discreet charm of the bourgeoisie
Jim Jarmush, Broken flowers
Antonioni, The scream
Sorry to sound poncy - am old fashioned about film and European

I recently saw 12 Mighty Orphans about an American football team and that was very heartwarming.
Another good film is Field of dreams.
suckingonchillidogs I enjoyed The Way Back too.

Blues Brothers!

All classics I’m afraid. Christmas film - the Bishop’s Wife.

Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day (book it’s based on also fab)
Comedies : National Lampoon’s Animal House ( sorry! Not perhaps morally uplifting but makes me laugh) , What’s Up Doc ? ( old Barbara Streisand comedy)
