Re: Feel good movies.

My favourite feel good movie has to be Calamity Jane but I also love the old Goldie Hawn movies Bird on a Wire Overboard and Housesitter ...all uplifting.

First Wives Club too...I really enjoyed that especially the very end when they dance in the street singing You Don't Own Me....Love it I would post a link but I'm on my iPhone no idea how to do it on this.....worth a look though
