It's a Wonderful Life is my go-to

[–] CheeseToastie@lazysoci.al 1 points 23 hours ago

That's a lovely film!

Amelie for sure. The scene with the blind man made me cry just from how heart warming it was.

A League of Their Own

Recently watched the first Austin Powers for the first time in years. Really dumb humor, but pretty hilarious.

The Wedding Singer. Even if you don't like Adam Sandler's usual schtick, he plays this completely straight and is really endearing. Great 80s soundtrack and Sandler and Barrymore are adorable and funny.

It's an absolute gem. My favourite comedy movie and also very warm-hearted. It's an Aussie institution.

I'd also highly recommend a British TV movie from the 70s called Nuts in May about a middle-class couple going camping. It's also light-hearted and hilarious, and very English, much as The Castle is very Australian.

The Norwegian movie: The Worst Person In the World

Great movie about life, love and finding who you are.

Might I recommend the tv show 'A Man on the Inside'?

[–] CheeseToastie@lazysoci.al 2 points 2 days ago

I've seen that! Loved it

[–] rotkehle@feddit.org 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

That's a good one

My go to movies when looking for that kind of thing, are Kiki's Delivery Service, and Mr. Right.

[–] BreadOven@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

I go to Howls moving Castle. But Kiki's is good. More of a feel good one haha.
