Today, July 26th, Grandparents’ Day is celebrated and if you’re looking to pick a movie to watch next to them, we’ve got some tips to keep you entertained.
The date refers to the day on which, in the tradition of the Catholic Church, the day of St. Anne and St. Joachim, parents of Mary and grandparents of Jesus, is celebrated. With the feast of grandparents becoming popular separately from the Christian date, it has become a day for grandchildren to honor grandparents, with gifts, celebrations and spending time with these figures.
For those who are looking for stories to watch together with their grandparents, we have separated a list of five light and fun films, to smile and rejoice in being around them on grandparents’ day. Watch!
Extraordinary
When choosing a movie to watch with your grandparents, light and emotional stories are a good choice. “Extraordinary”, a 2017 film and adaptation of RJ Palacio’s book of the same name, is a good choice and your grandparents are sure to fall in love with little Auggie.
Monica’s Gang – Lessons
Monica’s Gang comics are part of many people’s childhoods and grandparents are often part of this relationship with the characters. If you have already seen “Turma da Mônica – Laços” with them, another option is the sequel, “Turma da Mônica – Laços”. Additionally, this universe recently won a series on Globoplay, “Turma da Mônica – A Série”.
A matter of time
A love story mixed with science fiction and drama, “A Matter of Time” features some life lessons you can share with those you love. It’s another lighthearted and intriguing movie that your grandparents might enjoy watching by your side.
yesterday
What if the Beatles never existed? This can be a fun question to discuss with your grandparents, who lived before yours. This is also what the movie “Yesterday” is about, in which only one man remembers the existence of the iconic British band.
Charm
The animations often show the affection of young people for their grandparents. This is the case of stories like “Viva – Vida é Uma Festa”, and also “Up – Altas Aventuras”, which tells the friendship between a boy and an elderly person. But if you’re looking for something more recent, go with “Encanto”, which features the adventures of the Madrigal family and explores a little bit about the relationship between Mirabel and her grandmother.
