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

This thread is amazing I'm thrilled to have a list to watch, that'll see me through the winter Thanks to everyone who has posted.

I watched As Good As it Gets, loved it! so thanks to those who suggested it. It's only on Netflix till tomorrow though in case that's useful to anyone.

@Jellyfishnchips

Fantastic!

Cocktail

Innerspace

Yesterday

Little Miss Sunshine if it’s not already been mentioned.

This is such a great film!!

The Imitation Game

Tea With Mussolini

Another vote here for Local Hero, I think it is my favourite film of all time, just gorgeous.
Someone beat me to Strictly Ballroom, but I want to recommend the Australian classic The Castle, an absolute gem of a movie.

Nativity I love it.

Brittany Runs a Marathon
Peanut Butter Falcon
The fundamentals of caring
The Hunt for the Wilderpeople

All these are amazing imo.

Calendar girls or the Full Monty

Legally Blonde
And a second for Little Miss Sunshine

The Shawshank Redemption

Steel Magnolias
Smokey and The Bandit
The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas
Monster In Law

Les demoiselles de Rochefort

It’s a musical comedy with a fairly ludicrous plot, starring Catherine Deneuve and her sister. Its really happy and colourful. It even has Gene Kelly doing a dance number!

Corinna Corinna
