Hmmm..... hard to think of happy ones. Watched the Fisher King last night and despite that making me cry loads, it also had a happy ending.Hmmm, okay, some favourites..... The Truman Show (one of the best endings known to man!) Strictly Ballroom (really awwwwww) Gladiator (okay, a bit sad, but happy sad). IP: Logged |

As long as it doesn't leave me feeling, "Huh?" I'm okay. Twisted endings are interesting, but I'm a sucka for "happily ever after" kind of things. Can' think of any example at the moment (too bloated to think) IP: Logged |

I liked "A Time to Kill" w/ Samuel L. Jackson...also the "The Pelican Brief" w/ Denzel and Julia Roberts.. and speaking of Julia.. I also loved "Erin Brockovich"Another movie in which it was happy but then again not... but did all come together nicely was the "Prince of Tides" with Nick Nolte... I do agree with Shawshank... probably my very most favorite. IP: Logged |

Fayte I thought the acting in "The Color Purple" was flawless...Moved me to tears often.... I guess a "happy ending" is one that "moves" me in some way...My emotional nature is very controlled... So it is even more "moving" for me than others perhaps because I rarely get to that "moved to show emotion" point with regards to my own experiences... Music does much the same Anyway, I saw a movie called "Possession" after the Book (same title). About the poet, Arthur? Ash... Gweneth Paltro was the lead. Very Neptunian theme..great ending... Seen or Read it? IP: Logged |

"The World Trade Center". It's hard to call it "happy" but seeing the main characters survive and unite with their families certainly brings tears of joy and gratitude. IP: Logged |
