All Hail the Rom-Com

A couple of weeks ago I lent a few movies to a friend after she said she was looking to watch something ‘feel-good’ – Nothing scary, too sad or intense. I lent her The Holiday, 27 Dresses and a few others that I have watched repeatedly. She wrote me after watching The Holiday and said “…what a perfect pick. Thank you. I would like you to be my movie picker from now on. It is the kind I love. I passed it on the my friend and she enjoyed it too.” That got me thinking about other movies she would enjoy, as I have. My go to feel-good movies (in no particular order) are:

  1. Prime
  2. Because I Said So
  3. The Holiday
  4. The Break-Up
  5. Something’s Gotta Give
  6. Rumor Has It
