Hi friends. I’m a late forties male. Married with three kids. One in early high school and the other two are primary school aged. We often watch films as a family and have a good time together. They tend to be from the Disney catalogue or similar.
Sometimes, like today, I want to flake out on the couch and watch something but I really struggle to find something I will actually enjoy that is suitable for the kids as well. I don’t really want or expect them to sit and watch it with me. It’s more that I want to be comfortable with them walking in and out.
I’m hoping that you wise people of Reddit can help me make a list of films I may actually enjoy that fit this category. No nudity or sex. No language. Steer clear of major adult themes. Minor violence probably ok but nothing gory.
I have started to take an interest in older films. Finally watched Casablanca a few weeks ago and absolutely loved it. Annoyed I didn’t watch it sooner. So don’t shy away from older or even black and white films. I’m open to anything. Watched a lot of Elvis films and similar as a kid and liked them.
Please help me.
