My Top 10 Favorite Movies: "Feel Good" Movies
I like a variety of movies: comedies, dramas, horror, disasters and of course, "feel good". What's a "feel good" movie? I'm not sure there's a REAL definition for it. I couldn't find anything on Wikipedia. I would simply say that it's a movie that you watch and at the end, you feel good about yourself, the person you may be sitting next too, your family, friends, neighbors, co-workers and the world in general. Would you agree? You would? That makes me "feel good" too! :-)
Last week, when I recognized Memorable Movie Characters, I picked some pretty scary roles. This week I thought it might be a good idea to lighten it up a little bit. The Notebook stars Ryan Gosling, Rachel McAdams, Gena Rowlands and James Garner. It's a wonderful love story told in an unusual way. If you have not watched it, I would say it's worth adding to your Summer Movie List.
