Baby, It's Cold Outside - And Dark!
by William Wittmann

Seattle and the Puget Sound is the most sun starved metropolitan area in the US with the exception of Anchorage, Alaska, who wins the award by a rain drop. Puget Sound is renowned for having weeks on end where it rains every day. We sometimes don't even see the sun for days.
Surely, where you live has more sun, but you would probably enjoy a trip to the Caribbean and beyond as much as we would.

I gain relief by watching warm weather movies. These films promote the illusion of warm weather and serve as a reminder of times to come.

In order to be included on the list, the location has to play a role. That location needs to be sunny and pleasant, which isn't too hard to accomplish.

Additionally, to make the list they have to be good movies defined as ones I am willing to view repeatedly. This is much harder to accomplish.

In no particular order, this is my private reserve of movie titles. Pirates of the Caribbean

Room with a View

Much Ado About Nothing

My House in Umbria

French Kiss

Enchanted April

Under the Tuscan Sun

Here is a list sent in by readers, again in no praticular order.

Stealing Beauty

Lawrence of Arabia

The Sheltering Sky

Thelma and Louise!

English Patient

Juliet of the Spirits

Black Stallion

Shirley Valentine
