Quarantine Favorites: Movies

Looking for stuff to do, watch, or try while stuck at home?

I've been sharing some of my Quarantine Favorites lately: yummy recipes I've tried and want to try, bingeable TV shows, and addictive books. (I'm still working on this list.)

And today, it's movies! Netflix, Hulu, Disney+, and Amazon Prime have sooo many great movies at our disposal. Here are some of my favorites movie for all of your quarantine moods.

And like I did with my TV shows list, I starred one in each category that you HAVE to see if you could only pick one.

90s Classics

A no-brainer category. Bet you watched these movies when you were growing up in the 90s.

Netflix

The Craft*

Space Jam

Can't Hardly Wait

Groundhog Day

Drama and Romance

I'm not a straight up romcom gal; I like my romance with a little drama, heartbreak, or quirkiness.

Netflix

The Social Network

Silver Linings Playbook*

Her

Amazon Prime

Up in the Air

Train to Busan

Amazon Prime

Knives Out

The Handmaiden
