Film advice

I wondered if anyone had any suggestions of films that might re-inspire a belief in love or hope for future happiness, because at the moment...I'm running on empty.

weird choice but for some reason The Hours inspires me, and gives me hope.

Lost In Translation, I feel the same.

Eternal Sunshine.


Again for some strange reason, Monster. I don't want to be like Aileen Wournous, it's just that for a big part in the movie they had a beautiful relationship, and I want that.

You Can Count on Me. Absolutely brilliant little gem of a film.

It stars Laura Linney and Mark Ruffalo

i didn't think it was actually a happy film

my vote- amelie, chungking express

Tokyo Pop re-inspires me and makes me feel all fuzzy inside every time I watch it. Though it may not be so easy to find, as it is only on vhs.

I should have stated that three films I would suggest, The Hours, Eternal Sunshine, and Amelie, are all in there way mixed up in the whole mess (you know how a film can be so linked to one person?) so they are all out. The Hours is probably my favourite film of all time though.

Thanks for the suggestions. I've seen Serendipity (due to a small crush on John Cusack). I will have a look at the other ones that have been mentioned.

Since my suggestion is a tad obscure, I'll throw in a suggestion of True Romance. Now that's my idea of love

what do you mean with way mixed up in the whole mess??

I love The Hours. It's one of the most profound movies I've ever seen, it's one of the very few movies I would consider perfect, and it is my favorite film.

As in, those films remind me of someone that it is not in my best interests to be reminded of, especially if i'm trying to find some form of hope or belief in love. Corny, but true.
