What would you recommend?

The Bold Type

Bridesmaids is on Netflix which I rewatched last night

Sweet Home Alabama

Just Like Heaven is quite sweet

Havent seen The Bold Type seen the others.

The movie I watched the first night I was on my own was Wild starring Reece Witherspoon. I don't do romance/romcoms so can't help you there.

What's Wild about?

Wow, isn't it strange that there have been three different Reece Witherspoon recommendations five posts in!

Far from the Madding Crowd (2015)
Brooklyn (2015)
Enough Said (2013)

For another RW suggestion she has a new one on Netflix with Ashton Kutcher and Jackson from Grey's. Can't remember the name but was an easy enjoyable watch featuring 40-something leads which is nice.

Letters to Juliet. It's lovely!

Dumpling Lovely sweet film.

Wild is based on a true story by Cheryl Strayed. She hit rock bottom in her life - drugs/sex with randoms - and decided to change where she was heading.

It's uplifting and made me laugh and cry.

If you’re looking for fairly recent ones I thought The Lost City with Sandra Bullock and Channing Tatum was really enjoyable in a Romancing the Stone / Indiana Jones style.

I liked You People and The Hating Game too.

Older ones which I think are always worth a rewatch: When Harry met Sally, Pride and Prejudice, He’s Just Not That Into You, Legally Blonde and Miss Congeniality.

Enjoy!

The Cutting Edge. Best rom com ever.

How to lose a guy in 10 days

I rewatched 13 going on 30 recently, having only seen it forever ago when it first came out (presumably by renting it from blockbusters!) Enjoyed it a lot.

Best Rom Com feelgood film is Legally Blonde (also RW!)

Not a film but a series I’ve enjoyed recently is Girls 5 Eva on Netflix. It’s v funny, about a former 1990s girl band who reunite in their 30/40s. I get the songs stuck in my head every time I watch it!

Me too! My go to film when I want a laugh

The Notebook, Me Before You-both romances with sadness
About Time- time travel romance with humour
Last Christmas- romance with sadness and humour
Bridesmaids (as mentioned above) I've enjoyed but seen quite a few times now
One Day with Anne Hathaway - another romance with sadness and humour
Those are all off the top of my head and I can watch them more than once if I fancy a wallow!

Dumplin' is so sweet, it's on Netflix.

The Wedding Date

Not a film but the whole of lily in paris is like a silly fluffy comfort blanket with a couple of hot male leads.

The Proposal - although I'll admit I mainly watch it for the setting/house in Alaska and Betty White.
