I'm planning to spend my New Year's Eve at home alone watching movies, since my boyfriend just told me a few days before Christmas he was getting back together with his old girlfriend, and I think it would actually be more depressing to go to a party alone right now.
When I thought of what to rent to watch tomorrow, though, I drew a blank, and there's an awful lot of lousy movies out there. For those of us who are staying home alone for whatever reason, I thought it would make a fun and helpful diary to get recommendations for good movies to watch on a holiday when you don't really want to be alone. Movies to take your mind off it all. Funny movies, uplifting or heartwarming movies, really great movies that hold your interest all the way through, movies that are poignant or make a great point.
And thanks in advance for helping me make it through the holidays without feeling too depressed!
