Can you recommend me a film??

[frank C]

I just watched 2 really good movies last weekend, On Golden Pond and Cinema Paradiso. They were both wonderful and heartwarming IMO, could anyone recommend me something in a similar style?

You could try "Life Is Beautiful"

It's an Italian film set in WWII, where a family is sent to a labour camp and the father turns it into a game with his son to keep him happy.

It is light a light hearted film and sounRAB pretty similar to the 2 you mentioned.

This is a hard one to call.

Shawshank Redemption

...or maybe Wild Strawberries.

Its A Wounderful Life? i have never seen this movie but this might be your type of movie, i have heard about it and read up on it, but its not my type.

Bridget Jones's Diary is such a wounderful modern film starring Hugh Grant & Renee cant spell her second name . I love this movie, plus i love the sequel The Edge of Reason, fantastic movies.

ET: Starring Drew Barrymore is a tear-jerker movie and the ending is so sad and heartwarming, i love this movie and i wish it was on television so i can record it.

American Pie starring Sean William Scott, its a morden teen comedy, its also a bit of romance between two characters, but its really for teenagers, but its still a wounderful film.

What about, Fried Green Tomatoes At The Whistle Stop Cafe?

Yes i have this movie on VHS its an okay movie, not the greatest but still good.

This is probably the opposite of what you would like to watch but a film I would recommend is

Dead Man's shoes

Quirky funny and tragic

May i recommend Simon Birch...i dont normally tear up during a film, but i had to hold my hand over my face several times watching this.

Million Dollar Baby

As Good As It Gets

 

[zimmezumm]

A film I think compliments these two is called Paper Moon with Tatum O'Neil and Ryan O'Neil It has the feel good factor without being too cheesey the humourous moments that don't feel contrived or ott
It's not avalible in the UK (and does not look likely that it will be) but Region 1 formats are available and region 2 from Aus
Ch4 show it now and again

The English Patient - only film I can think of offhand that may appeal. Any other hints as to what you normally enjoy?

Fallen, Denzel Washington

Usual Suspects,

Fargo,

Rear Window, the 50's original with James Stewart and the most beautiful woman in the world, ever. Grace Kelly.

Would second the earlier comments about The Shawshank Redemption and Simon Birch.
