Any suggestions for heartearming, extremely uplifting movies?

We are having a fine go at tackling the most disturbing stuff weve all watched on a different (and quite enjoyable) thread so maybe to cheer it up lets all mention a film we love that makes us feel good about life, other people, the future of mankind...anything along these lines would be grand!
I offer Groundhog Day: a grumpy, abusive serial asshole gets snowed in at a small dogpatch town and is forced to relive the same mundane events day after day until he learns to feel joy and love in his bitter life...
What a movie!
Feel free to share

To quote legendary lyrical poet Vanilla Ice:

I "slice like a ninja, cut like a razor blade". So fast, other teachers say, "damn"!

Great example...my bunch really liked it and have watched quite a few times
That first 5-10 minutes were really tough though:/my mom was over last time we watched and she left the room and didnt come back

[–] TexasJack (12516) 7 years ago

Yes, the opening montage was sad.

Very...but its the perfect set up isnt it?
The boy needs a dad and the old man always wanted a child
Very sad but sweet
Good writing
