Favorite comfort movie?

the movie that, eventhough you may have a large "to be watched" pile, you put in just because it is warm and fuzzy and comfortable and you could always watch it and find some enjoyment out of...

My vote:

Princess Bride

This came on TV the other day, and my wife and I stopped and sat down to watch it. Of course the TV edit cut some lines for time, so we quickly switched over to the Blu-ray.

I don't know why, but "The Man Who Wasn't There" by the Coens is always a favorite of mine to watch when I'm not in the mood for anything particular. I just love it.

Across the Universe

It's my go-to when I'm feeling stressed and need to just unwind and really relax.
