Hi Wendy, here are some movies that in my experience were
very welcomed when shown to residents.
You may borrow them from your local library or buy them online.
Residents may also enjoy music DVDs by Nana Mouskouri, Richard
Clayderman, Roy Orbison, The Seekers, Andre Rieu.
Singing in the Rain
Seven Brides for Seven Brothers
Some Like it Hot
The Sound of Music
The Pajama Game
Honeymoon on Wheels
My Fair lady
Kiss me Kate
Easter parade

The Wizard of Oz
Dumb and Dumber
It's a Wonderful Life

Travel movies are great also - you can go to the Travel Agents and borrow some or the Library, also shops like Cheap as Chips/Dick Smith often have good DVD's - call it ARMCHAIR TRAVEL
To Wendy
I find Musical movies with Doris Day or Fred Astaire are favourites. Great old songs to evoke memories
Hi you can add also the Disney movies like Lion King, then Happy Feet, as these have music great colour and lots of movement our residents love these type also as all the others that have been suggested
Hope this helps
