Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone
(2001) HULU
There is something inherently comforting about the Hogwarts school grounds. I don’t know if it’s the old castle with the warm candle lighting, or the surrounding views of the stunning nature in the United Kingdom, but it’s near impossible to watch these films and not want to take a train from Kings Cross Station to Scotland and enter the school of wizardry yourself. And who knows, your movie night might turn out to be a weekend movie marathon as you watch all eight of the Harry Potter films.
When Harry Met Sally
(1989) HBO
When Harry Met Sally is more than just the quintessential romantic comedy, it’s also a perfect fall movie. You’ll watch the characters stroll through New York in the perfect autumn weather set to a soundtrack by Harry Connick Jr. What more could you ask for?
Good Will Hunting
(1997) HULU
Set in a late 90’s Boston and starring Robin Williams in the role that got him an Oscar, Good Will Hunting is the kind of movie that warms you up. It’s full of so much heart and genuine laughs. Between both the charming setting and the thoughtful playscript, the film gives all the feels.
Knives Out
(2019) Amazon Prime
As a Rian Johnson classic, this modern murder-mystery is one of the best Hollywood has to offer. Featuring tons of absurd characters, a crazy old mansion, and dozens of snug sweaters, its twists and turns keep you on the edge of your seat.
Dead Poets Society
(1989) YouTube
You’re right, we’re double dipping with Robin Williams movies. But there’s just something nostalgic and fall-inspired about going back to school. Another classic, Robin Williams portrays the story of a controversial yet beloved teacher who impacts his students in a profound way.
