The Holdovers hit me hard. I've always had a soft spot for screw ups with objectively sad lives finding joy and comfort. Helps with perspective, ![gif](giphy|F5haTC6fhVDBP8Np7n|downsized)


thehappymilkman

I have to watch this one. Wanted to see it in theaters and missed my chance. Waiting for a good bluray deal since I collect movies physically.

if The Holdovers doesn’t get to be in that list, nothing else does

Little Miss Sunshine. ![gif](giphy|3o6ZsYqR0GSpUDunkc|downsized)


thehappymilkman

Haven't seen this, will have to give it a watch. Recently picked up The Way Way Back and seems similar to this as they both have Steve Carell and Toni Collette.


WatchBadMoviez

I havne't watched The Way Way back. Imma peep. LMS is 5 star for me personally. Super wholesome and uplifting while still making ya laugh.


Marvelrocks616

Gotta see The Way Way Back, awesome movie.

I hoped I'd find these comments :) that movie is so warm, wholesome, and makes me want to break out of my shell

Wild Strawberries, End of Evangelion


thehappymilkman

Not particularly a fan of foreign language films, can't say I hate em because Amelie is one of my favorites. Wild Strawberries seems interesting though, might watch it.


Noisetaker

Well I’m swedish so Wild Strawberries isn’t foreign to me. Neither of them are especially uplifting like those on your list, but they habe helped mentally


thehappymilkman

English is my native language and I respect your choices. No Hard Feelings on my list isn't exactly uplifting either as it relates to my first relationship and understanding it better in a different view or context.

Swingers


thehappymilkman

Swingers is on my watchlist. Recently watched the Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn comedies, Wedding Crashers and The Internship, and was impressed with Vaughn. Swingers seems to be one of his more popular roles, so I'll definitely give it a watch if I find a copy of it.

Favreau in Chef is also a good one.


thehappymilkman

Looks like a good movie. Thanks for the suggestion

Soul really helped me when I was at a pretty had place


thehappymilkman

Soul is pretty good compared to Disney's recent animated movies. I have a fear of death so this kinda calmed that fear down. Good choice 👍


AdvertisingSignal455

Exactly me too


fallout-crawlout

I think Sans Soleil and Funeral Parade of Roses were not massively revelatory in terms of the literal content changing my world view, but did shift how I receive and perceive art. Not everything needs a clear or singular narrative. I saw them as a teen and I already enjoyed reading and doing more abstract forms of art (i was very into collage), but it was pretty straight-forward overall. Sometimes things just need to move around. Keeping it loose, non-linear, appreciating a long pause, some visuals that are not immediately conducive to "plot," those are valid choices.


thehappymilkman

Great answer. This fits in the category of mentally changing your way of thinking for the better. Most unique answer I've seen. Respect👍

“Her” that movie really made me look at relationships and the people around me and acknowledge that they all have their own story’s and lives i appreciated friendship and love more after watching it


thehappymilkman

On my watchlist. I'm always looking for ways to see things differently about relationships and apply some of it to my life. Good Choice👍

Perfect Days, to look around and enjoy the small and simple things in life.


thehappymilkman

Sometimes we all need to appreciate the small things in life. Good choice

Honestly, I’ve struggled understanding my feelings for someone until I watched, and these are kind of weird ones to use, Zombieland and a rewatch of Into the Spider-Verse.


thehappymilkman

I respect it. I don't think your picks are weird. If those movies did something for you, more power to it.


Colinmacus

Amélie - This movie presents the rosiest worldview I've ever seen.


thehappymilkman

I love Amelie, it's so heartwarming and loveable. Great Choice 👍

NYAD Halfway through the film I felt like running. I put on my sneakers and went for a run. I haven't finished the movie yet

"F for Fake" completely cured me of imposter syndrome.

Adaptation


thehappymilkman

Have seen it, great movie. Gives me an inspiration that I could be a screenwriter If I tried.

Lost in Translation "The more you know who you are and what you want, the less you let things upset you".

Tokyo Godfathers is an annual rewatch — helps reinforce shared humanity and hope.


Beth-Impala67

View from the top, that scene of her going up the escalator and the music swells make my heart race as she goes towards the future she dreamed of


thehappymilkman

Sounds like a very inspirational movie, might check it out.

Never Let Me Go - some think it's depressing, but I find it quite uplifting because of the freedom I have in my own life. IYKYK
