My newest favorite movie is "13 Converstations About One Thing", it is a ensemble case lead by Alan Arkin and I was just captivated by it, but yeah, I love Amy Adams, but my favorite of her is the Sunshine Cleaning with Emily Blunt and once again Alan Arkin!

A comfort post! I'm SO ready for a comfort post. I'm completely destroyed that I haven't seen a one of the films (movies) your friend suggested. (Not really)

Of your list. I've seen Emma (just okay) and Miss Pettigrew (a real surprise--I watched it because both Frances McDormand and Amy Adams were in it, and liked it a whole lot.)

Speaking of Amy Adams, I never get tired of "Enchanted", either. Watched it with my grandkids first, but enjoy it just as much on my own.

Off the top of my head I'd say my favorite comfort movie is "Love, Actually". Some real stuff in that movie, including a heartbreaking performance by Emma Thompson, and Liam Neeson as the dad of all dads, and I'm right there dancing at the end. It's great!

Warning about Sunshine

Warning about Sunshine Cleaning -- excellent move but for some reason categorized, as least by Netflix, as a comedy. So I was expecting something different and had a Stan from South Park "What the Hell is wrong with you people?" reaction.
