Film Favorite “comfort” films

[Cream Gravy?]

I’m sure anyone who loves film and has been severely ill or severely depressed and needed something to watch in the background can identify with the idea of a “comfort” movie.

My top five are:
-Adventureland
-The Ninth Gate
-Lost in Translation
-Midnight in Paris
-Out of Africa


What about y’all?

I'll have to give this more thought, but my immediate go to is Trailer Park Boys. It usually depends on which season I gravitate to, but if I'm feeling really bad it's usually going to be season 5 lol.

(I know thats tv not film, but I do occasionally watch the TPB films as well.)

As far as actual movies, Tommy Boy... Me, Myself, and Irene...

Certain moods, something like Edward Scissorhands or Nightmare Before Christmas.

Hook, Jurassic Park, Home Alone.
