I think this is a good cross section of my favourite films— Frances Ha and Worst Person are really incisive portraits of being in your twenties; Where The Wild Things Are is one of my favourite movies about childhood— like many Miyazaki films, it features children but isn’t a children’s movie; and Kramer Vs. Kramer is such a perfect showcase for Dustin Hoffman and Meryl Streep— all excellent feel something movies.

a lot of these are not that critically acclaimed but they are still really fun watches!
1. SAVING FACE (2008): it is a really touching film which is set in flushing ny, it is centred around a young Chinese woman and her exploration of her sexuality. surprisingly a very easy watch but also very heartfelt.
2. FRANCES HA (2013): a bit basic but still amazing, the main character which is played by Greta Gerwig navigates feeling lost in her 20s. me and my best friend quote this movie all the time.
3. COOL RUNNINGS (1993): i grew up with this movie always in the background, it is such a classic. very funny premise: based around a jamaican bobsledding team. very lovable characters, it is a comfort watch 100%.
4. SAVE THE LAST DANCE (2001): it is def a guilty pleasure watch, it's not critically acclaimed but when has that ever stopped me. great soundtrack, vibes overall are so comforting. the storyline is very predictable but like idc.
5. 50/50 (2011): as much as i don't like joseph gordon levit, this movie is so funny and heartfelt.
6. SHE'S THE MAN (2006): when i was 14 i had to run a play in my class and we got assigned shakespeare's twelvth night, and my teacher said to watch this movie. it is such a funny movie, again quite a guilty pleasure watch but so good.
7. INTO THE WILD (2008): this rec is quite film bro but the true story it is based on was a hyperfixation of mine for years. it is a dramatic retelling of the life of chris mc candless (made my dad cry which is not an easy feat)
8. UNE FILLE FACILE (2019): set in cannes and follows two cousins. speaks a lot to female relationships and may be my fav on the list. i won't spoil anything here, i just love it and you should watch it (it is also very beautiful)
9. THE HAND OF GOD (2021): set in 1980s napoli, follows a boy and his love for football as well as his complicated family life. such a gorgeous film

for movies, u GOTTA watch may (2002), directed by lucky mckee.
for tv shows, i recommend brand new cherry flavour on netflix.
for books, i suggest boy parts by eliza clark, but if ur specifically looking for stories about adolescent girls, then her newer book penance might be more your speed. also rouge by mona awad, and motherthing by ainslie hogarth

god sometimes, in the moment, it sucks. but 99.99% of the time i feel so much better after the fact. inspired by me having to recently take my own advice i give to my students about how to get more comfortable being uncomfortable.
