    Just looking at the Muppets thread and remembered how I just can't resist certain films-no matter how sad or grumpy I am these always make me smile!!!

    A League of Their Own


    actually that one makes me laugh and cry:o

    I was obsessed with this when I was little, I was an odd kid


    This one turns me into a blubbering idiot every year without fail...happy tears though!!!in it the santa signs to a deaf little girl.I work as an elf for our store santa, and one year he signed "merry christmas" to a deaf child.


    I burst into tears!!!:o:o:eek:

    The Shawshank Redemption. The ending is fantastic and it always gives a sense of hope regardless of your life.

    The sound of music. Not just because it's a sappy happy film but because I share my love of it with my Dad. For my 21st for a present from my parents I went away to Salzburg with my Dad to stay in a nice hotel and we went on the sound of music tour.

    It's a very happy memory of a lovely birthday.

    Also - I'm going to watch monsters inc now!
