What is your happy film? That one film that brings you gratification . Remembering " License To Drive" release 1988

article image placeholderLobby poster original
It was light, it wasn't heavy hearted. Both the quarries were hilarious in it. And it was my introduction to Heather Graham, who played Mercedes and God, did I have a crush on her? But it was a very funny film. And I ended up getting the poster and I had the poster on my wall and I bought it on VHS. And then I obviously bought it on DVD later on, but it just can turn me around

What is that one film that turns your miserable day into a ray of sunshine? Talking films that turn a sad day into joy.

So that's a film even to this day, throw it on at the age of 29, going on 30, I find that it is something that still brings a smile to my face, definitely from ear to ear

Hey, everybody has their film Taylor, and that's awesome. And that's your film. I mean, look at me. I'm a 46 year old man, and I'm a fan of the two Cores, and I absolutely love license to drive five. It's a teen movie. Let's see. It came out in 1988. So I was 13 when it came out 13 years old, just going into my teens and loved watching these two goofy 16 year olds on screen

goonies!

But that movie is my youth. If I see that movie, I'm instantly transported back to my youth to happy times, happy days. You know what I mean? Fun fact, I was just browsing IMDb since I didn't know exactly the date. The movie first was shown in theaters and I saw that they're making a second part. So Guni Stew is coming. So that made my day. Thank you for that

My 3 "Happy Films."

Responding to the question, what is my happy film? I actually have three my happy films are Top Gun, as you know, starring Tom Cruise. Then the next one would be We Keep the Faith, Baby. And that is the story of Adam Clayton Powell, Jr. Portrayed by Harry Lennox Jr. And Vanessa Williams is in that movie as well. And then my last one that I would consider my happy movie would be Leap of Faith, and that stars Steve Martin

I forgot his first name, but the guy who played Chunk, he is a big time entertainment lawyer now, and it's just one of those films that is Nostalgic. 100%. And like you said, you get just instantly drawn back to that innocent, fun times of being a kid. When you watch that film, it's magical

And every time I throw on a Steve Martin film instantly, a huge smile comes on my face. The guy is just naturally funny and just makes you laugh hysterically. Very funny, man

Then when Blurays came out, I bought it. And then when streaming came out, I bought it on Apple itunes. That's my first movie that I always get, so that I have it to watch. Bye

And boy, did I have a crush on Kelly LeBrock? Wow. But I still quote lines from that film today with my buddies. We just kept on it. I have the poster. And like you said, it's for the outcast two friends that just related to each other. They were best friends and the big house and just into the computers and into action figures and all that kind of stuff. That was me, man. It definitely hit home. So it's a classic

One fine day

I wanted them to live happily ever after. And I loved both the kids in the movie. They are effortlessly likable, and there are some absolutely charming mothers and father daughter scenes that kind of make you feel all warm inside. And this is a movie that often makes me believe that a day could start off horribly bad and still could end up being quite alright. It. So why wouldn't it cheer me up? So, yeah, that's probably my pick for your question

What I'm trying to say. It's enough of sex. It's the freedom to make a choice to talk about it. Just escape. Just escape me. Swirl is pretty rough, and it's just nice to skate once in a while. I didn't know what this whole group was about. That's what it was about. I didn't know. I didn't know how to address it. I just went in there and don't judge me, and I wouldn't judge you

Mine was. I forgot the name of this. I think it was called the 80s Girl or something. The girl next door. That's what it was like, a pornography that they make in high school that she's trying to swap. And she's a neighbor girl. And she's trying to get out of that business and showing kids falls in love with her. Man, it's pretty d*** good. Cheers. Plus she's fine

Sounds like "Rat" and "patootie", "ratpatootie"

Hey, I'm new to this app here, Neil, but I wanted to say that my film is Ratatouille. I'm a youngster that's my favorite movie may have to do with things that I've done while watching that movie substance wise. But yeah, Ratatouille has always been a really fun, light hearted movie, has some pretty good character progression, of course, but I also enjoy cooking. So yeah, I'd have to go through added to me

But if you haven't definitely check that out the Way Way back. That's a movie I just hunted down and bought two for myself, which is really funny, especially Sam Rockwell in that movie

And to your surprise, I do know the way way back. It's a fantastic film. I saw that on IFC Channel a few years back and I ended up buying it on DVD. Really fun film. Great cast. Sam Rockwell is such a role model for that young boy in the film and that Water Park was just amazing. And Tony Collette was phenomenal. And as always. And even Steve Carell was great, even though he was a p**** in it
