Little Miss Sunshine or March of the Penguins

 

Volver
not happy but good.

 

Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home (The One With the Whales)
Beethoven
Beethoven's 2nd
Babe

An iffy movie, with no violence, lots of humor, and some romance.... Super Troopers.

TEG

 

No movie that features VT and Maple Syrup chugging could be iffy!

 

Hard to say without knowing your mother, but...

Never met anyone that didn't thoroughly enjoy:



Kind of a "feel-good" movie, but touching nonetheless:



The story is a little rough on the squeamish (a little violence and some sensitive topics), but my mother loved:

 

I was soooo going to suggest that

 

You've rented 80k movies? hmmm

+2 on About a Boy
Also, Land of Women.

 

Maybe one of these:

The Dish

Miracle

Something's Gotta Give

 

Funny Games directed by Michael Haneke. Both the 1997 German and the 2008 English versions.

 

Oldies but great

The Philadelphia Story

Bringing Up Baby

Mildred Pierce

She Wore a Yellow Ribbon

Man I can drive my roommates up the wall sometimes with these old movies.

 

I was going to suggest that one too, but it's very sad at the end, thus breaking the OP's 'no heart-breaking endings' rule.

I thought 'Music and Lyrics' was a good movie.

 

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. or maybe she's seen it already since you've rented over a million movies for her.

 

Harold & Maude
Garden State
About a Boy
Priscilla Queen of the Desert
A Perfect World

 

I second "Harold and Maude". Beautiful, touching, interesting and clever -- a classic.

I also second "Life is Beautiful"

- The Pillow Book (Peter Greenaway)

- Memoirs of a Geisha

 

Pi

The Fountain


They are both very good films.

 

That leaves out "About a Boy"

 

Fisting Firemen.

 

big fish?

 

La Vie En Rose is another good movie.

EDIT: Big Fish is another kick ass movie, so I'm seconding BiTurboMunkie's recommendation of it.
