Help me out here. I’m in the mood for movies with actual adults, not 20-somethings pretending to be teenagers, having complicated relationships. I’m also nostalgic for any time but now and movies that aren’t about superheroes. Romantic comedies are fine, it doesn’t have to be highbrow. I’m in the middle of Stepmom if that helps you know how low my bar is. |

Sleepless in Seattle? |

I loved loved Love and Sex with Jon Favreau. The Way Way Back is awesome. Waiting to Exhale. Sliding Doors. Something to Talk About. As Good As it Gets, It’s Complicated. Nobody’s Fool is so good. The Wonder Boys. |
The Thomas Crown Affair |
Four Weddings and a Funeral |
There's a series on Prime called The Vineyard. It's quite recent though.
Historical fiction with a mature romance and the male lead is HOT HOT HOT. |
Crossing Delancey |
The Proposal
Somethings Gotta Give (main characters older) Bridget Jones's Diary |
Hannah and Her Sisters. |
You’ve got mail, Pride & Prejudice (Colin Firth version), Bridget Jones, Ever after & While you were Sleeping are my go-to movies to watch when I’m sick. The film equivalents of comfort food.
