So guys it’s raining again(probably the worst August in years) and the Monday blues have set in, so seeing as we’ve been having our Fri bizzare topics here’s Mondays ‘feel good’ topic, talk about films that make you feel good and/or Films that in general you just enjoy time after time.
Anyway I watched good-Will-Hunting last night, have had the film for years and have watched it numerous times and everytime I enjoy it, one of the only films where I can tolerate Matt Damon, great story, great cast, great film.
Fav films include:
Donnie Darko
Scarface
Donnie Brasco
The Lord of the Rings
Star Wars
The Crow
Black rain
Jerry Maquireand lots more….
-
Il Postino
Memento
American Beauty -
Momento was one weird film, I still haven’t grasped the plot.
never-the-less it was excellent. one of only a few films worth mentioning with Guy Pierce’s name on it.Days of Thunder.
-
Shawshank Redemption
Life Is Beautiful
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind ( only film I can stand Jim Carey in )
Schindler’s List -

Terminator 2 JD
Platoon -
Just watched “The Happiness of the Katakuris” yesterday, hilarious movie. Directed by Takashi Miike(same guy who made Ichi the Killer & Audition etc….)
Favourite “feel good” movies are Indiana Jones, Star Wars, LotR…….there are more but can’t think of them right now… ;)
-
What is it about?, is it a action-horror like his other films?, and where did you pick it up.
Ichi the Killer was supposed to get a special edition re-release, I saw it advertised in some Mag, but have failed to locate it thus far.
Meet Joe Black:
An excellent film by any standards, the plot development is good and the premise for the story quite odd, and original. Hopkins is brilliant in it too.
-
Some that spring to mind, althought many more will as soon as I hit ‘Submit’…
The Big Lebowski.
Le fabuleux destin d’Amelie Poulain.
Belleville Rendezvous.
Anything thusfar by Charlie Kaufman (Adaptation etc..).
Lost in Translation.
28 Days Later.Oh, and a second for Il Postino, a wonderful movie.
Surf movies…
Thicker than water.
Shelter.
Litmus.
Big Wednesday. -

Cinema Paradiso is one of my fav feelgoods. Paradoxically, it’s one of the very few movies that has ever managed to make me cry!

True, Ichi was a rather odd film to say the least…..sort of like Manga mixed in with real life.
