    These ones I really enjoyed in the last few years: - The Whale (whole room was crying at the end) - The Quiet Girl (surprise Irish movie that made my emotions come out) - Spy x Family - The Movie (great humour) - Civil War (shocking images, the mood change was brutal) - The Boy and the Heron (my first Miyazaki experience, what a wild ride) - Wonka (I'm not into musicals, but this was awesome as fuck) - Inside Out 2 (great orchestral soundtrack, well-written and relatable) - No Hard Feelings…

    I’m going for ‘Falling for Figaro’ which was my late father-in-laws favourite film. I never saw it all the way through!

    You can watch Falling For Figaro because it's not technically a christmas film

    OMG how could I forget!! It’s called “Falling for Figaro” and I can’t tell if it’s a Netflix movie or what but it came out in 2021 and stars (I think) the actress who played the daughter in Dumplin’ and one of the flashback suitors in Mamma Mia 2!

    Nope. Falling for Figaro. Not specifically a Christmas film and I’ll keep Klaus for the right season.

    38. Falling for Figaro (2020) My mom insisted I watch this. It’s very mom movie. I did like it though! It was a cute and standard rom com. 3 stars? Nothing special.

    I like this actress Danielle Macdonald; she is in the Tourist, Bird Box, Dumplin'. I watched a silly movie "Falling for Figaro" just to see her.

    Tonight's movie: Falling for Figaro (Netflix) with Joanna Lumley. Convinced mum to not watch the Bachelor (because I wouldn't). Seems promising.
