3.Field Of Dreams
Although this movie will be popular with baseball fans, since baseball is the main theme, the movie will also appeal to non-fans. Kevin Costner, in arguably his best role, plays Iowa farmer Ray Kinsella as he attempts to turn his corn fields into a baseball field because a mysterious voice keeps telling him to do so. While this may sound a little far-fetched, the movie proves to be inspirationally heart-warming, and will have you enthralled from start to finish. Field of Dreams deals with such themes as missed opportunities and the power of having dreams and following them through. You’ll probably shed a tear along the way, and afterwards you’ll probably want to start fulfilling some more of your own personal dreams.
4.About A Boy
Based on Nick Hornby’s best-selling novel, About a Boy is the story of the rich, hip, single and immature thirty-something Will (Hugh Grant), who makes an unlikely friendship with an isolated 12-year-old boy Marcus (Nicholas Hoult), who has problems at home and school. The two learn a significant amount from one another: Will teaches Marcus how to be cool, and Marcus teaches Will how to be responsible. Grant gives his best performance in this movie, and is ably backed up by the supporting cast. There are some humourous moments along the way – and also some melodramatic ones brought on by the condition of one of the characters. The interplay and developing friendship between the two leads is what makes About a Boy a great feel-good movie.
