Do you use films as therapy?

Meet Me in St. Louis (1944) is a film I can watch over and over again, never tiring of it, always finding it fresh and life-enhancing. It is like a magic box I can always open to savor the wonders therein. Definitely one of my favorite movies.

I certainly use them as therapy or an escape from a nasty day. When I'm depressed, I find that a good Bugs Bunny cartoon helps. My all time favorite, though, is a Three Stooges short, "In The Sweet Pie and Pie." It's got the best pie fight scene ever and it never fails to get me to laugh.

Yep.

When I need the 'I will survive anything' and 'my life alone is not directionless nor unnoticed' I go to "Out of Africa" or "Dangerous Beauty".

When I need severe comforting it's "LOTR:  The Fellowship of the Ring"

When I'm feeling alienated and want to stay that way it's "Eye of the Beholder."

When I'm needing to feel empowered in social situations it's "Shallow Grave" or "Lara Croft" movies
