    I’ll never understand why this movie isn’t super famous. Incredibly well made, well written, well acted. Just super wholesome and heartwarming; one of my family’s enduring favorites for the holidays. Thank you so so much for watching and loving this underrated classic!

      It WAS famous back in the '90s. It was one of those movies that the majority of everybody had seen, and it was prominent on the shelves at video rental places when it came out on VHS, like a whole floor to ceiling section.

      YES!!! Same here. I'm so tired of gritty, "realistic," harsh movies. I want a return to fun, innocence, and happy endings! Why can't movies just be a fantasy and fun anymore? Why does everything have to be dark and depressing?! Honestly, I'm so tired of it. I just want happy, good, and fun back.

      She's also mixed in some fairly unpleasant films - 28 DAYS, for example... which is a top performance by her but unpleasant to watch BECAUSE she does it so well. Tough. THE NET is an interesting film, well made, well acted but, again, rather difficult to watch. I really enjoy TWO IF BY SEA where she's a willing accomplice to a criminal boyfriend (the usually unlikeable Denis Leary, who's pretty fun in this one). LAKE HOUSE and PREMONITION (which I continually confuse and seldom rewatch). HOPE FLOATS is pretty depressing for me to watch again... more like HOPE SINKS. MISS CONG is so much fun and #2 is not. sigh... but all are part of her work and I'm thankful for that.

    This is one I saw in a theater when it first came out. No idea why I went to see it, but I fell in love with Sandra Bullock's Lucy almost immediately. They say acting is reacting, and Lucy sitting quietly while the family argues about the kind of nonsense families like to argue about is just perfect. She just smiles and glows from being in the room with them.

    This is the ONLY movie I watch every Christmas, without fail. As others have pointed out, not only is the writing and acting top tier, but the focus on her finding _family_ and not just a man is the part that I just can't get enough of. Truly, this film should teach a master class to everyone making those dime-a-dozen streaming service rom-coms on how to create meaningful characters, character relationships, and character development...and to do it in roughly 90 minutes.
    Also, I'm just now realizing that it's one of the only rom-coms I can think of where the protagonist is working class. You _believe_ that she's not made of money, and that fact never makes you pity her. It's just part of her world. It's totally normalized and I love that.

      I think Hollywood is so political now you can’t have romance because it “implies a woman needs a man.” If they made it today she’d realize she doesn’t want either of them and goes to Europe with her girlfriends instead. She’d also be a genius and a high earner and better than the men in every way, stronger than them even, there’d be a scene where she overpowers and beats the crap out of the neighbor.

    This is a lovely little romantic comedy that is strengthened by its somewhat wistful underlying tone which adds a layer of depth to the film.
    As someone else commented Glynis Johns, still with us at 99!, who plays the wacky charming grandmother also played the mother in Mary Poppins. Aside from that milestone she appeared in many terrific films over her 60 year career, she made her first film when she was 15.
    One of the most famous and enjoyable and the one you would probably like the most is the 1955 comedy "The Court Jester" with Danny Kaye as the title character, Angela Lansbury as a spoiled princess and Glynis as a very fair member of a rebel band trying to restore the rightful heir to the throne. It's a colorful delight.

    Glynis Johns is an awesome actress. She's worked so many famous actors in her 90+ years; Jimmy Stewart in No Highway In The Sky, Julie Andrews in Mary Poppins, and she was in the Christmas movie The Ref.

    This is one of my wife’s favorites. I’m not one for romcoms but I like Bill Pullman, Peter Boyle and Jack Warden (Saul). The 90s was a good time for romcoms. Another one worth watching is “It Could Happen To You” with Nicolas Cage and Bridgette Fonda.

    There are a few rom-coms that I really enjoy, and this is at the top of the list. It's got a bunch of actors I like - Sandra Bullock, Bill Pullman, Peter Boyle, Jason Bernard, Ali Walker - and it's got a crazy, quirky set of characters, and a wacky comedic plot. The whole film just charms, but especially Sandra Bullock.
    I've been a fan of her for a long time, and I never truly realized why until one day when I looked over my elementary school photos and realized that she's a dead ringer for the girl I fell head over heels in love with in 4th grade. I mean, the fact that she's one of the most talented actors of the last thirty years or so may have contributed to my fandom, too. I'm just sayin'.
    I've often said of Sandra Bullock - I really liked her in Demolition man, I absolutely loved her in Speed, but I FELL IN LOVE with her in While You Were Sleeping.

    70 year old guy here, married almost 45 years. This is one of my many favorite movies. The inevitable romance, complicated by the many, ever increasing, web of incidents and misunderstandings. This might have been the first movie that I saw Bill Pullman in, that I realized who he was. Excellent actor.
    And that family- they could be mine..

    I remember Bill Pullman in The Accidental Tourist as well but it's so insanely long ago I saw it I couldn't say if it's a react worthy movie. It was nominated for Best Picture though, and Geena Davis won Best Supporting Actress. Written/directed by Lawrence Kasdan (Empire Strikes Back, The Force Awakens, Solo) and score by John Williams, both also nominated for Oscars that year.

    I loved your reaction and knew you would love this movie. This is simply one of the best rom coms ever. This 60 year guy still tears up at this movie. Sandra Bullock has never been more adorable. The rest of the cast is perfect. How can one not love Glynis Johns as the grandmother. It is a must watch movie every Christmas.
    Seeing how you love these kinds of movies, if you haven’t seen French Kiss with Meg Ryan and Kevin Kline you must. It’s another quirky rom com that is too often overlooked.

    I've recommended it before, but another romantic movie you should absolutely watch is "The Mirror Has Two Faces" with Barbra Streisand and Jeff Bridges! It's another mid-90's rom-com, and I just know you would love it! It's a hidden gem!
