2026, My year of Garden Narcissism

[heirloomgal]

Winter is also a great time to share movies. Youngest DD, in particular, loves to watch them with me.
I had never seen this family friendly film before, but I highly recommend it:

Captains Courageous, 1937​

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0028691/

We as a family haven't been to the movie theater in the last few years, mostly because the product isn't entertaining enough to justify the cost.
Last year the 4 of us went to see

The Life of Chuck, 2025​

based on a story by Steven King. It is truly a lovely art film, with many surprises. I HIGHLY recommend it!

I would love to hear more movie recommendations! I really struggle to find family friendly stuff, most of what's out there is not my cup of tea and I wouldn't want the kids to see it. I have researched quite a bit on family friendly movie sites, and even those ratings are not totally reliable.

Flight of the Navigator, E.T., Short Circuit, Galaxy Quest and My Big Fat Greek Wedding are some movies that i like which i can watch again at times. for seasonal movies i do admit to liking the original Grinch movie, the Rudolph animated one too. for not so seasonal there is Horton Hears a Who.
