But sometimes, it’s preferable to stay home and watch a movie — and yet, spring’s fleeting presence in our lives isn’t one to ignore. So why not watch a movie that captures the beauty of the season while allowing you to stay home? Below, find 4 movies that are undeniably perfect for spring time.
The Sound of Music (1965)
Is there anything more perfectly suited for spring than Julie Andrews singing in a field of blooming flowers? Certainly not. You’ve most likely seen The Sound of Music, the well known, wholesome classic that tells the tale of the Von Trapp family of singers — but revisiting it this time of year is sure to bring a wonderful burst of spring to your evening. Starring Julie Andrews, Christopher Plummer.
You’ve Got Mail (1998)
This beloved 90s rom-com centers around Kathleen, a boutique bookstore owner in New York, and Joe, the owner of a chain bookstore, who quickly become enemies. But after they unwittingly befriend one another on an anonymous online chat, they begin to fall for one another. Not only does this sweet tale wrap up as spring emerges, its theme of being open to new beginnings makes it a wonderful watch. Starring Meg Ryan, Tom Hanks.
Tuck Everlasting (2002)
Winnie is a teenaged girl who finds herself desperately in need of a change due to her controlling mother. After accidentally meeting Jesse, an intriguing young man, in the woods, she’s soon faced with a life-changing decision. Tuck Everlasting just oozes springtime with its lovely color palette and aesthetic, and there’s also plenty of running through fields, as one does in the spring. Starring Alexis Bledel, Jonathan Jackson.
Pride and Prejudice (1995)
Okay, fine, this is a mini-series, but why not just make it a marathon, or a two-night event? This classic simply can’t be recommended enough. Most of us have already had the opportunity to read or watch Pride and Prejudice, but there’s no better way to celebrate spring than being transported to England in the 19th century, and watching as Lizzie Bennet, everyone’s favorite heroine, falls for the dashing yet aloof Mr. Darcy. Starring Jennifer Ehle, Colin Firth.
