Question
Shant
I am after some ideas. I am a tough person to find a movie for. If there is much violence at all I have bad dreams about the movie. Any type of icky subject matter is troublesome for me. Some movies are worth putting up with like Dead Poet Society. However, as much as I love so much about the movie it is too hard for me to watch a second time because of the boy dying.
I love the British movies like Love Actually. There have ben some Irish films like Secret of Ronan Inish and some others like that.
I know how difficult it is to recommend movies for someone else but I would appreciate any help. If you know of some movies feel free to throw them out or if you know of a site I could go that would be helpful.
Thank you for your time
Mark

Answer
I think you are the perfect audience for the Pixar films, such as UP, WALL-E, MONSTER'S INC., and RATATOUILLE.

As for the British films, if you liked LOVE ACTUALLY, I would recommend NOTTING HILL and FOUR WEDDINGS AND A FUNERAL, two films also written by Richard Curtis, who wrote LOVE ACTUALLY.

Hope this helps!
