A lot of us are emotionally impacted by the current pandemic. So, while we’re all stuck here in our homes, it’s great to put on a movie to ease the stress. With that, I made up a small list of some of my favorite feel-good movies.
Juno is extremely funny, very well-written, and contains great performances. The film is also about a very important topic, one that is extremely relevant now: women’s reproductive rights. Is this Oscar-winning film spreading a pro-life or pro-choice message to its audience?
The power of a talented female director like Patty Jenkins and an overall diverse cast is what makes this film worth watching for me.
A bumpy journey about revolution and family makes us feel fear, disgust, humor, and satisfaction.
