I watched People, Places, Things recently - a really lovely rom-com with Jermaine Clement. It made me realise that I haven’t watched another really heartwarming, funny film for ages.

Any recommendations of anything similar?

Going in Style.

I like mystic pizza that's on Netflix. The holiday is one of my favourites, also on Netflix Smile

Just watched This Is Where I Leave You - both DH & I enjoyed it.
About a family having to sit shiva after their dad dies - I know it doesn't sound like a barrel of laughs but has funny moments, some sad but mostly about how messy life is - has Adam Driver, Jason Bateman, Tina Fey, Timothy Oliphant amongst others.

Jason Bateman and Tina Fey in it?

Another one for The Blind Side.

SquishyFishy · 01/10/2020 22:36

Have to agree with both Hunt For The Wilderpeople and Saving Mr Banks.

sakura06 · 01/10/2020 22:37

@SqidgeBum I agree completely! One of my favourite films.

Itwasaquarterpast11 · 01/10/2020 22:38

Yet another for The Blind Side. One of my most favourite films ever.

The best feel good movie of all time is It’s A Wonderful Life

Swearwolf · 01/10/2020 22:39

Seducing Dr Lewis - it's so lovely, it's about a Canadian fishing village who need to attract a new doctor so they can open a factory, so when a doctor comes to stay they all go about trying to make him want to stay. It's so genuinely sweet!

Lars and the Real Girl. Ryan Gosling and Emily Mortimer.. it’s a long time since I saw it but I remember it being a heart warmer! (Though the premise does sound a bit out there Smile )

@Tobermory

About Time - a Richard Curtis film
Seconded! I love this film so much, it’s just a lovely rom com, plus it has Bill Nighy in it which is always a bonus imo.

Amelie is lovely, heartwarming and a visual delight.

1990s · 01/10/2020 22:42

About Time. Although already mentioned Smile

Another vote for Wonder

Brooklyn is lovely but too sad . Another Irish emigrant here Smile

Ah I loved peanut butter falcon

ChickNorris · 01/10/2020 22:45

Long Shot on Netflix with Charlize Theron and Seth Rogen.

Plenty of funny moments but also really quite heart-warming. It surprised me in a very good way.

Carriemac · 01/10/2020 22:45

Little women is my feel good

Annasgirl · 01/10/2020 22:45

@Savemyusername

Just watched A Beautiful Day in the Neighbourhood with Tom Hanks. Surprisingly heartwarming.
I came on to recommend this. Really gorgeous film.
Annasgirl · 01/10/2020 22:46

And Wonder - my DC loved both

@Tobermory About Time made me cry like a baby. I couldn’t stop for about half an hour afterwards Blush

I think it was called chef. Every single character was good, no bad people. An unexpectedly lovely film.
