My favorite: Anne of Green Gables from 1985

You’d watch the orgasm scene in When Harry Met Sally with your daughter? God no.

It's more about living life to the fullest, than just a rom-com, but recently watched The Last Holiday with my tween. Queen Latifah is the lead; LL Cool J is the romantic interest. Gerard Depardieu and Timothy Hutton are supporting cast. It was a little slower than I remembered, but we both enjoyed it.

Forgetting Sarah Marshall for a teen?

Agree with Legally Blonde and Crazy Rich Asians.

I watch the last 1/3 of Crazy Rich Asians when I need a feel good movie that feels empowering. Starting with the Peik Lin telling her to not be a chicken scene.

Does Crazy Rich Asians qualify? My teen daughter isn't too old for it, but maybe it's not light enough?

Mild sexual jealousy/teen hookups. Plus bratty rich girl stereotyping.

Occasionally my husband and I will bust out "Not the Pamchenko!!!"

That made me laugh. I do this with Sweet Home Alabama. "You have a baby! In a bar!"

I loved Legally Blonde.

Also, The Cutting Edge
The Proposal
Two Weeks Notice

Cutting Edge is so cute!

These aren't cute/funny/silly, though.

I don't think "Mrs. Robinson" is mother/daughter fun.

Painted Veil (the book) involves death, cheating, and possibly infertility.

Not comedic, but really sweet: Letters to Juliet

Heartily seconding Ever After. No material in that movie that might make an awkward viewing experience with a parent, cute movie, strong protagonist.

Oh, definitely The Cutting Edge, with the Olympics going on.

"Toe pick!"

Those porn-star stand-in scenes though are cringe.

Forgot about those. Nix that one from the list.
