Simple and Sweet

Sometimes I love to be challenged by the films that I watch. I want something that pushes me to focus and delivers something fresh, artful, controversial and masterful. The problem with watching films that challenge or inform you is that you can't watch them all of the time. I absolutely love a great documentary, a convoluted multi-dimensional science fiction, a uniquely challenging arthouse film or even some gritty tale that is going to terrify or upset me, but I don't always have the attention span or energy for those films.   
Sometimes I just need to balance it all out with material that is sweet, easy, simple and delightful. I don't mean mindless crap like reality TV, that is for when you really need to be in 'not thinking' mode (and yes, I go too there from time to time). I am talking about movies that are still interesting, insightful and definitely worthy of your time but they also don't require you to have the focus of a brain surgeon to enjoy. They are easy to digest, pleasurable to watch and will generally leave you with a feeling of pleasantness after they are finished. Kind of like Disney and Spielberg movies do. 
Luckily, I have plenty of films just like this on my genre lists that are all 3 chilli peppers or more and are also most worthy of your viewing time. So if you want something simple and sweet, then look no further. Here is my top 20 'sweet and simple' film list that is guaranteed to leave you with all the warm and fuzzy feelings you will be able to handle. So grab your cuddly blanket, cosy slippers and a hot chocolate and strap in for some some super sweet movie feels.
