My feel good / slice of life movie list. I like to watch these movies when I am feeling lost, depressed or anxious. They bring me a feeling of hope, wonder and happiness. Most of them just show people overcoming obstacles, chasing after their dreams or looking for true happiness.

Rotten Tomatoes: 67% A talent as virtuosic as Steven Soderbergh could easily be content doing the same thing over and over again. Instead, being the cinematic master of invention that he is, it is now surprising when Soderbergh doesn't surprise his audience. Known equally for his blockbusters and experimental films, one of Soderbergh's unorthodox t...
Rotten Tomatoes: 68% Richard Linklater's thematic sequel to his beloved Dazed and Confused, SubUrbia is a far darker, more scathing, and cynical approach to similar ideas. Following a group of teens who like to hang out in their Americana small town, the movie expertly reconciles Linklater's nostalgia with Eric Bogosian's biting wit. A great all-in...
Rotten Tomatoes: 80% Jonah Hill's directorial debut, Mid90s paints a vivid picture for audiences to understand. Showing the days and nights of a 13-year-old living in Los Angeles, Mid90sis amusing and filled with a strong sense of time and the complexities of youth. The conflict comes naturally, as it doesn't feel as though Hill has created these s...
Rotten Tomatoes: 88% Naked is Hamlet with the violent sadism of an isolated youth, and the arrogance of pseudo-intellectualism with no Horatio to dispel the self-convinced notions that swirl around in the head. Unlike A Clockwork Orange for example, Naked is a commentary on its time, a rueful diatribe on Thatcherite gloom. Unlike A Clockwork Orange...
Rotten Tomatoes: 93% Frances Ha is essentially a very good student film. Shot in black and white, the film surrounds the unexceptional life of Frances, a 27-year-old dancer living in New York City. This is a film that would be jejune and uninspired in most other hands, but Noah Baumbach's always exceedingly excellent eye and Greta Gerwig'sradiant p...
Rotten Tomatoes: 94% The Station Agent is the defining model for how to make an independent comedy-drama. That's not to say that its success is easily replicable, as to do that, one would need to gather a phenomenal cast, an endearing and wise script, and more than capable direction. Even then, The Station Agentstill possesses a certain je ne sai q...
Rotten Tomatoes: 96% Kenneth Lonergan has directed three films, each masterpieces in their own way. However, Manchester by the Sea may be his most whole accomplishment, a 137-minute exploration into a once whole life that has been shattered. This is monumental work from Lonergan and lead actor Casey Affleck, two of the most patient craftsmen of the...
Rotten Tomatoes: 96% American Graffiti comes from a simpler, but no less innocent time. Though released in 1973, the film is set in 1962, before the outbreak of the Vietnam War, or the JFK assassination, or the peak years of the counterculture movement. Focusing on multiple characters during their last days before the start of college, few movies a...
Rotten Tomatoes: 97% At the time, the totality of the achievement of Boyhood somewhat overshadowed how awesome of a movie it is. It is a film that is an analysis of the human condition, but one that has no semblance of analytical probing. It was universally lauded by critics upon release, with some even calling it one of the greatest films they had...
Rotten Tomatoes: 100% Like many of these films, The Last Picture Show is a carefully paced coming-of-age film that explores the prosaic lives of members of a small, nothing town. Yet, more than most, The Last Picture Show offers the baggage that rests underneath. Centering on a small Texas town, the movie revels in its monotony. However, this is no...
