Anytime Movies

Sunday, January 21, 2007
There are movies that I will watch any and everytime I happen to catch them on television. They are usually "chick flicks", but they all hold that familiar appeal that is great for those Winter weekend days when you have a crock pot full of chili cooking and you don't want to move your ass off the couch.

Here is my current list of "anytime movies". They are in no particular order. Well, they are in the order that the came to mind.

Steel Magnolias
The Parent Trap (either the old or new versions)
Notting Hill
O Brother Where Art Thou
Superman (any version)
Bridget Jones's Diary (both I and II)
You've Got Mail
Meet Me in St Louis
Ocean's 11 (and 12)
Bachelor Mother
The Major and the Minor
Send Me No Flowers
Move Over, Darling
The Thrill of it All
Lover Come Back
Pillow Talk
The Notebook
Grease (and Grease 2)
Somewhere in Time
Moonstruck
The Princess Bride
Fried Green Tomatoes
Prelude to a Kiss
The American President
Love, Actually
Pride and Prejudice (the BBC mini-series version)
Sense and Sensibility
Clueless
Waiting to Exhale
Beautiful
He Said/She Said
Runaway Bride
Circle of Friends
The Lake House
Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood
Magdalene Sisters
10 Things I Hate About You
The Deep End of the Ocean
Age of Innocence
Dangerous Liasons
Drive Me Crazy
Never Been Kissed
50 First Dates
Kate and Leopold



Any Cary Grant movie but especially
That Touch of Mink
The Awful Truth
The Philadelphia Story
Bringing Up Baby
My Favorite Wife
An Affair to Remember
People Will Talk
Mr. Blandings Builds His Dream Home
Arsenic and Old Lace
Once Upon a Honeymoon
His Girl Friday



Gosh, that's a big list! And I probably forgot a few dozen. Thankfully, my time is limited and these movies are not on television every day.

The list did get me thinking about work. I think I will swing by Blockbuster and pickup Steel Magnolias. I can show it for my Monday Movie group tomorrow. Then again, I know every line of this movie and could probably just perform it for the patients.
