Top 5 comfort films?

thirtytwoelvismovies:

There’s something about those reassuring chicken soup flicks. Hard for me to pick five but I’ll try.

1. All of the Marx Bros. films (I once watched Duck Soup on a daily basis for two months. Pretty sure it cured a depression) / 2. Frankenstein (1931) / 3. Day of the Dead (1985) / 4. Ghostbusters / 5. Back to the Future Part III

Shout-outs to most of Chaplin’s filmography, Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country, Hammer Frankenstein films, Hannah & Her Sisters, and films I taped off TV as a kid (Superman III, Beetlejuice, Pee Wee’s Big Adventure)… the list could go on.

I’d love to read yours, or anyone’s for that matter. Won’t tag anyone but if you feel compelled to share…

Ever-shifting of course, but here in this moment:

  • Pan’s Labyrinth
  • Spirited Away
  • The Da Vinci Code
  • Muppet Treasure Island
  • A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night
