When Harry Met Sally

IMDB：7.7 Douban：8.3

Recommendation Index: ★★★★★

One of the most popular romantic comedies ever made, When Harry Met Sally, follows two longtime friends who work to navigate their relationship while living in New York City. The film comes to a head with one incredible New Year's Eve party scene.

It’s one of the rare, nearly perfect love stories that remains classic decades later.

About Time

IMDB：7.8 Douban: 8.8

Recommendation Index: ★★★★☆

After a disappointing New Year's party, Tim's father tells him that the men in his family have always had the ability to travel through time. While Tim can't change history, he can change what happens in his own life, so he decides to make his world a better place, and the so-called way to change is to find a girlfriend. Sadly, this is not as easy as it seems.

A man travels through time to try and fix his past mistakes. Crack up and cringe at this movie’s New Year's Eve scene before crying (happy tears…) by the time the end credits roll.

The Grand Budapest Hotel

IMDB：8.1 Douban: 8.9

Recommendation Index: ★★★★★

The whole movie is full of Wes Anderson's unique aesthetic, the perfect picture to cure OCD, the clever story structure and the hilarious dry humor, but it is the flash of humanity, warmth and pathos that hits the heart.

A quirky murder mystery at a surreal ski resort. One can only dream of being in a wintery Wes Anderson wonderland as January rears its chilly head.

The Holiday

IMDB：6.9 Douban: 7.7

Recommendation Index: ★★★☆☆

Featuring two of the most iconic movie couples of all time (Cameron Diaz and Jude Law, and Kate Winslet and Jack Black), this classic rolls the entire holiday season into one fantastic rom-com when two women down on their luck decide to trade homes — and lifestyles — for the holidays.

Little Women

IMDB：7.8 Douban: 8.0

Recommendation Index: ★★★★★

Little Women by Louisa Alcott is a classic of American literature. The four March sisters' pursuit of self-reliance and loyalty to the family runs through the book, making the story shining and the plot vivid and touching.

Greta Gerwig's verdantly alive adaptation of Louisa May Alcott's evergreen 150-year-old novel captures the book’s spirit and heart.

It also cuts to the reason why Alcott’s ideas still resonate: she knew how it felt to yearn for something more, even when you’re not sure what that something more is.

Bridget Jones's Diary

IMDB：6.8 Douban: 7.5

Recommendation Index: ★★★☆☆

The titular character, Bridget Jones, makes a New Year’s resolution to find a sensible beau and steer clear of romantic attachments to the classic, toxic archetypes. Will she end up with her exciting, troublemaking boss played by Hugh Grant, or the supposedly boring, yet ever intriguing Mark Darcy played by none other than Colin Firth?
