Movies that feel like Minnie and Moskowitz (1971)
Depressed and jaded after being dumped by her married boyfriend, aging beauty Minnie Moore wonders if she'll ever find love. After shaggy-haired parking lot attendant Seymour Moskowitz comes to her defense from an angry and rebuffed blind date, he falls hopelessly in love with her despite their myriad differences. Minnie reluctantly agrees to a date with Moskowitz, and, slowly but surely, an unlikely romance blossoms between the two.

If Minnie and Moskowitz hit the spot, these will too
One thread runs through both: loneliness
Made in the 2000s, in a different era of the craft
The same mix in both: romance, then tenderness
Romance with a pulse of loneliness, in both cases
Both lean on play more than on drama
Romantic comedy, and it commits to that
Tender romance in both cases
Drama built on stillness, twice over
Comedy with a pulse of wit, in both cases
Same instincts, 24 years apart
Sits closer to fantasy than Minnie and Moskowitz does
Drama built on play, twice over
