15 PERFECT MOVIES TO STAY IN AND WATCH FOR FALL


It’s officially the season of cozy sweaters, PSL, and beautiful foliage. That’s right, it’s a new season of autumn and all of the beauty and traditions that come with it. To pair with it and your PSL latte, let’s have a little look at some of the perfect fall movies to enjoy. Or at least to offer some you might enjoy.

LIST | FIVE REASONS WHY I DO (& DON’T) LIKE ‘MISS SCARLET & THE DUKE’

After some movie research and just some of my own personal choices, let’s take a closer look at some of the ideal movies to enjoy during this fall season. Let’s take look and talk about any of the titles you may enjoy.

Notes: I’m going to exclude Hallmark films from this list because I curate separate lists for them all the time. You can see my “rankings” of their ‘Fall Harvest’ titles from years past here. Also some films excluded include titles that I have on my list of “Non-Spooky” movies (2019) or if you’re looking for movies that aren’t on this list, you can find our 2020 list which is still relevant.


PERFECT FALL MOVIES TO ENJOY


1: ANNE OF AVONLEA

This is a pretty obvious choice, but I couldn’t not include this 80s classic because it’s Anne of Green Gables and there is some beautiful autumn scenery. However, there’s additionally beautiful spring and winter scenes, too.

Search for the DVD on places like Amazon; or stream on Gazebo TV

2: GAME PLAN

Dwayne Johnson plays a football star in this film about a man who learns he’s a dad.

3: HOMETOWN LEGEND

Lacey Chabert co-stars in this film about a football team that tries to bring pride to a hometown. It’s not one I’ve seen yet, but it seems like it’d be one of those inspiring kind of movies. perfect fall movies to enjoy

4: LEGALLY BLONDE

I saw this one get a mention online, and it’s true that while we don’t typically think of Legally Blonde as an “autumn,” it does feature some pretty stunning scenery. Just in case you aren’t a millennial who loves this flick, it follow Reese Witherspoon’s Elle Woods as a woman who defies the stereotypical odds of everyone around her and attends law school.

You can stream the film on Max or purchase digitally on places like Amazon

5: THE LOST HUSBAND

This slower moving drama just seems to have the “vibe” of autumn. Most of the people who I saw watching this at its release didn’t like it, but I’m proudly in the minority. It’s about a woman who moves her family to the farm of estranged family. Leslie Bibb plays in a more serious role alongside Josh Duhamel. It’s also inspired by a novel written by Katherine Center.

10: THE SPECTACULAR NOW

I’ve probably already added this one to a seasonal list (or two), but this original film just feels autumn-y. Plus, the story of Lara Jean Covey is just so sweet, and in one of her early roles Lana Condor is quite good playing the role of this beloved fictional character. It’s one of my most favorite feel good films inspired by the novel by Jenny hand about a girl who’s private love letters to crushes find their way into the hands of said boys..

13: AN UNFINISHED LIFE

Jennifer Lopez stars in this film, likely one of her lesser known roles, as a woman running from abuse. It’s slow-moving, but it’s also a solid drama story.

14: A WALK IN THE CLOUDS

Cannot remember the season of this one, but the light of the production or just “feel” of it seems autumn-like. Follows a couple who pretends to be married, and features Keanu Reeves in what is, perhaps, a role he doesn’t normally play.

You can stream the film on Starz or purchase digitally on places like Amazon

15: WORDS ON BATHROOM WALLS

This one is a dramedy that feels like autumn again. It follows a teen boy struggling with voices in his head and the inability to cope without medication that alters him in other ways.
