What is your favourite film to watch when feeling down?


I personally like to get my mind off things and watch a film or read a book. For me, I like watching the old disney films, for example, my current favorites are The Huncback of Notre Dame & The Little Mermaid & Mulan. I especially love the mesmerising music. It lifts me up instantly and makes me feel I'm in a different world.


What about you?

I like those really old disney movies, like The Rescuers or The Secret of Nimh.

Disney movies for sure! But I also like watching Howl's Moving Castle or Spirited Away. The music is so soothing and the story makes it seem like everything is going to be ok in the end.

@TealBunny13 Yeah! I remember first seeing Howl's Moving Castle when I was 9, I loved watching it when I arrived from school, it'd give me this nice feeling of nostalgia, same with Spirited Away. Ghibli movies are the best.

@sonerii Agreed! The first Ghibli movie I saw was Princess Mononoke when I was 10. Probably not the best movie to intorduce a child to the studio haha cheeky Still one of my favorites, but definitly didn't watch it again till I was in my late teens.

@MayaCloud My favorite is Love Actually. Although You've Got Mail is a close runner up. I prefer Love Actually because it's filled with flawed people struggling with their feelings and all coming out winners.

Wow! Lots of Disney Animation film lovers in here. Cartoons I think take us back to our childhood, where for some of us, life was simpler and less complicated. We love a happy ending.

@MayaCloud Hiya, I'm right there with you. Mulan is in my top 10 for sure if for no other reason than when Mulan meets "The King of the Rock." makes me smile everytime. My number 1 go to favourite film to watch whenever I'm down is Shaun of the Dead. A romantic comedy zombie horror loaded with dark humour sprinkled through out - never fails to make me smile, no matter how down. : )
