A magical movie, more like this?

I think this is one of the most beautiful movies I've ever seen. It's got a special feeling. Something magical, almost ethereal. Watching it makes me feel the same way I feel when I'm out in the nature on a sunny summer's day. I like to watch it in the early summer to be reminded of how beautiful life is and because just like the narrator say I also feel like that's a strange and breathless time, and I want to be led to do things I've never done before.

Anyone else get this feeling watching the movie?

And can anyone recommend me other movies with this special feeling? Movies about seizing the day and about the beauty of life in all is frailty.

I totally agree, this is one of my all-time favorite movies (and books). The scenery, the music, the narration, it all has that old-fashioned charm. Everytime I watch it, it reminds me to really enjoy the moment and appreciate the little things, like the Tucks do.

I'd say check out Bridge to Terabithia, Big Fish, Penelope, and Stardust. Also, Water For Elephants. It is a drama, but to me it has a slight fairy tale quality to it, the whole storyline of running away with the circus and whatnot.

Couldn't agree more, there's something about unique live action Disney films that have this, like Holes as well.

I agree with Stardust, a very good summer film about nostalgia and youth.

I also recommend:

Peter Pan
The Princess Bride
Ladyhawke
The 10th Kingdom
A Neverending Story
Legend
