I noticed that "It's a wonderful life" is showing at certain cinemas this Christmas.

Has anyone got a film that restores their faith in humanity/sanity?

    It's a wonerful life - Goes without saying

    Field of dreams - When the pitcher takes his mask off at the end of the film and Ray realises who it is. "If you build it he will come"

    Dumbo - when his mum puts her trunk thru the bars *Sniff, sob, sniff*

    Great film

    I also like all those WWII propaganda films like In Which We Serve and The Way Forward but stirring more than feel good

    Gregory's Girl. When the geeky John Gordon Sinclair finally lands the gorgeous Clare Grogan I go all gooey, even though I must have seen it 20 times. Great film.

    I have been trying to remember the name of this film for bloody years. Saw it a couple of times and thought it was great, but couldn't for the life of me remember the name. Now to try and get a copy.

    I've got it on DVD - but think it came as a boxed set along with Comfort and Joy and something else.
    Watched it again in the summer - great fun!

    And here's another Scottish classic - Whisky Galore.

    Great film - I got the Ealing Studios boxset last year - quite a number of feel-good films in that.
