Movies That Pull The Heartstrings My friend wrote this. What movie do you recommend for him? I’m looking for some incredible recommendations that will definitely pull his heartstrings! “What happened to movies? They were my favourite comfort when I'd had a bad day. I barely watch them anymore, I can't. They're just not the same, nothing pulls the heartstrings anymore. Please send me some good modern movies. Some of my favourites below 👇🏻 Fight club Se7en Gladiator American history X Shawshank redemption The Shining The Godfather Good Will Hunting Battle Royale”

I think I see the problem with your friend’s list.

If it’s heartstrings your after check out Greta Gerwig, Agnes Varda, Joan Micklin Silver, Ava Duvernay, Alice Rohrwacher, Celine Sciamma, et al.

“This holds equal space in my heart as the 90s version and smartly does a remake do that. I watch it every Christmas because there is no Christmas decor more perfect and magical in a movie than this one.”
