“Under the Tuscan Sun” was used twice. But I’d have to add “It’s Complicated,” because even when life does get complicated, and we sometimes make choices we wish we hadn’t, we can learn from our mistakes and come back stronger and happier.
For me it is the Proposal with Sandra Bullock. Its business meets romance mixed in with great scenery. Its the perfect combination for a relaxing evening with my honey.
It’s a Wonderful Life taught me that everyone’s life impacts others in ways that they may never realize.
A little movie full of charm, whimsy, love and heart, “The Butcher’s Wife”, an early Demi Moore picture based on Plato’s Split-Apart Theory.
Thank you so much for this list. It came in my email today. I am a regular subscriber to Bella Grace and believe it to be the most beautiful magazine ever created. And this list! I was amazed that I have seen most of these movies and they are my favorites too, and I was also sad to see that so many wonderful movies of Maggie Smith were not listed. They would have fit the category so well…
* Ladies in Lavender
* A Room With A View
* Tea With Mussolini
* The 2 “Best Exotic Hotel” movies
* Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood
and one of my all-time favorite movies, “My House In Umbria” and there are so many more. Her movies are so Bella Grace-esque. Just wanted to share!
“Something’s Gotta Give” with Diane Keaton and Jack Nicholson, “Pride and Prejudice” and “It’s Complicated” would round out your great list. I never get tired of the beautiful dream home setting for “Something’s Gotta Give”.
Don’t forget “Chocolat”–a story of a woman’s strength, perseverance, compassion, with a little Johnny Depp deliciousness sprinkled in.
