Comfort Movies

from The Midnight Run · host Quirky Mirth

Send us Fan MailWhat do we want from a comfort film? The answer is it depends on how you feel. Nothing is off the table here and it doesn't matter whether the film is great or not. Jaws and Zulu are great films for example, but we wouldn't consider them comfort movies. The film just has to be right for the occasion. So, what films do we like to watch when we are tired, down, it is rubbish weather or we are unwell? As a result, for the first time in the series our top 10 lists are completely different.We discuss our favourite characters and scenes to watch to cheer us up and our favourite comfort film actors.  There are 2 quizzes for Matt and the small rubber football is up for grabs again. Our favourite comfort foods and albums to listen to are also revealed along with a 3rd special guest appearance by Ava Jude.Other topics are the controversial 2nd goal in the 1923 FA Cup Final, what people do in Antarctica, how Barry Manilow got Lewis over a relationship, Errol Flynn's special skill and what Matt listens to every time he gets a new car. So, curl up on your sofa in your dressing gown and with your favourite snacks. We hope to make you very comfortable over the next 2 hours.
