Can anyone recommend some feel good or romantic films?

[Aftermath]

I am trying to find some romantic comedies, fantasy or other feel good type of films to watch with my wife. We just watched the Princess Bride a few months ago, which she had never see and she loved it. I am not as big of a film buff as I use to be, so would you have any recommendations of anything nice to watch? Old movies are fine as well, especially anything with animals in it.

Oddly enough, I suggest "Dark City"

It is a great Sci Fi film, but also fits with the Halloween creeps and at the heart of it all is a love story with a romantic ending.

It is also one of my favorite movies.

Currently on Amazon- Love and Monsters is a great one.

My daughter and I are huge fans of all the “coming of age” style stuff, and things related to it. Never Been Kissed and 10 Things I Hate About You are perennial faves. Looks like it gone from HBO streaming now, but if you can find “Moonshot” we really enjoyed that as well.

“There’s Something About Mary” is absolutely hilarious, and also romantic.

“Benny and Joon” is a favorite of my wife and I. We re-watch it every couple years.

Bringing Up Baby - Cary Grant, Katherine Hepburn and her pet leopard

If you've never seen "Romancing the Stone," it is quite good.

"Sideways," is a good one.

The favorite movie of my wife and I - "Sleepless in Seattle" We've seen it over 20 times

The scene with Hanks, his sister (actually his wife in real life) and bro-in-law discussing "An Affair to Remember" and "The Dirty Dozen" is hilarious.

We are actually checking out Love and Monsters right now! Thanks for the recommendations.

If I ever watch a 'feel good' or 'romantic comedy', I'll let you know.

I have tried to re-watch Starman for years but can't find it anywhere without having to rent it. A 38 year old film. Yeesh.

"Forget Paris"

 

[rjtwangs]

My favorite " chick flick " is Notting Hill with Julia Robert's and Hugh Grant. I used to live in Notting Hill so it's very nostalgic for me.

If you want to watch a recent Rom-Com, there's Bros.

 

[Happy Enchilada]

"Raising Arizona."

Okay then.

 

[O- Fender]

The Fisher King (I highly, highly recommend)

LA Story
Long Story Short

Not sure if these are actually good or if I am just in love with Rachael Griffith:
Me Myself I
Muriel's Wedding

A recent one which is awesome but requires close watching is "Everything everywhere all at once". Probably the best movie this year.
