Recommend me a genuinely heartwarming film

[GoneAndDoneItAgainAgain]

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?

I'd forgotten In her shoes, yes that one too.

Another About Time fan
Chances Are
Moonstruck
An Education
Ladybird

As good as it gets for me

Captain Fantastic....

Similar to Hunt for the Wilderpeople.

I've just finished watching just like heaven on netflix, very heartwarming!
@Tobermory I love This is us, it makes me cry all the time though!

Oh and mermaids and now and then, I love them!
(I watch too many films haha)

Recently watched Dumplin on Netflix and thought it was lovely

Another vote for serendipity here and this is us . Also the old harry met Sally , sleepless in Seattle , you've got mail vibe and the notebook.

@GiraffeNecked

Lion.

@onedayiwillmissthis

Eurovision on Netflix...

Yes,! when things seem really grim Dh and I watch their final song and it cheers us right up.

Finding Your Feet. Celia Imrie, Timothy Spall, Imelda Staunton.
Really lovely.

Educating Rita with Michael Caine and Julie Walters.

The Intouchables

Just saw The Big Sick it was lovely

Ladies in Black

Little Miss Sunshine

Absolutely love this film.

Dumpling

Another vote for
The big sick
This is us ***
If we are including TV shows, The Good place is about the best, andmost heart warming show ever,and incredibly funny!
(it seems weird in the first few episodes, but stick to it!)

I loved the Big Sick as well, I do like Zoe Kazan films, lots of quirky love stories

365 days is very heart warming, it's on netflix and really worth the watch if you are into all that haha

Wtf why would you do that on a thread of recommendations. It’s about as far from her heearwarming you can get. It’s a barely disguised porn film about an abusive manipulater

Dan, in Real Life

Julie and Julia. Such a sweet film about a modern day chef trying to recreate dishes. Really lovely. Stars Meryl Streep and directed by Nora Ephron

@stormsurfer

What we did on our holidays Fisherman's friends On a clear day Edie

100% yes for the first two, they are incredible films.
