Comfort films

[Reid Malenfant]

The Couch Trip, funny as f*ck with Dan Aykroyd & Walter Matthau

I'd also say Kelly's Heroes, might be a war film, but it has a shed load of feel good factor about it... Maybe they are all nuts

Woof, woof, woof

Definitely any Carry On film, except the last 2or 3 which were too rude for my taste and just not funny.

Did I mention 'Margaret Nolan' ?..

Barry, I don't know anyone else who likes (or has even heard of) Two Lane Blacktop! (Performance and image, that's what it's all about.)

Any of National Lampoon's Vacation series, particularly the seasonal one
