Do you have a film that makes you feel good anytime you see it?

I do.

It's GREASE!

If this film is on TV I'll watch it.

Why?
Because it takes me back to 1978.

I must have seen it over 50 times.

I remember seeing for the first time at the cinema at North York Sheridan mall (Jane/Wilson) in Toronto as 12 year old kid. My mother always gave me money to see a movie on the weekend.

Watching it as an adult brings back powerful pleasant childhood memories.

No but seriously man, I don't watch movies 50 times - but there are some movies that I catch every 4-5 years and they make me feel good.

Pulp Fiction is one for me. I realize it's not a typical feel-good film but what makes me feel good is something really original and creative. I rewatched it recently and I was borderline giddy the whole time. It just makes me happy to see something that great.

As far as something that actually is a feel-good movie, Amelie.

Great choice, Plommerwitz. Outstanding film.

My feel good movie is The Big Lebowski

Honorable mention goes to Stand By Me (Rob Reiner) because it reminds of being a kid on summer vacation.

Funny you mention Stand by Me.

I was an usher at a theatre when it came out and always timed it so that I was in the show for the barfing scene at the pie eating contest and also the leech scene when the boys were in the creek.


PS: Muddy, I should have clarified that I'm referring to feelgood movies you remember from being a kid.
 
Childhood: TV show is Glimore Girls , Movie: It's a wonderful life (among other Christmas movies we watched EVERy and I mean every Christmas for as long as I can remember. )

As an adult, I have seen You've Got Mail and Dazed and Confused, I don't know how many times.
 
E.T.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I first saw this when I was about 4, I cried, I was obsessed with E.T. for the longest time. I had an E.T. nighty, and stuffed animal, and everything. I loved and still love me some E.T. Even to this day, if I happen to come across it on TV I will stop and watch it. and smile the whole way through. Truth.
