[quote="gold21"]Some of the Pixar movies, as someone already mentioned, may work well for your family./quote]

Inside Out is very clean and an incredible movie

I posted a list of movies I was allowed to watch as a teenager (with the exception of Paddington which is a recent movie) which included Mrs. Doubtfire and I grew up chasidish so its considered clean.

ETA: I was also allowed to watch The Sound of Music, Willy Wonka, The Wizard of Oz, Mighty Duck and Free Willy but those were already mentioned so I didnt repeat them. Matilda was my favorite movie of all time and I desperately wished there was a Miss Honey to adopt me as well Smile I'm sure there were other movies that I saw but cant remember titles now.

Chassidish people don't have a monopoly on what is considered clean and tasteful!

We are DL and my kids watch (selected) films here and there.

I had never seen Mrs. Doubtfire when I was a kid, but I thought it was a good family-friendly film. We watched it and all the kids thought it was inappropriate.

I also thought the hero was unsympathetic and annoying, but that's another story.

Can I ask everyone a silly question
I always see Sound of Music being suggested as a clean movie for frum families
But how to you explain the nuns to kids?
I would love to watch it with my kids but wondering if it is appropriate
Also Madeline with the nuns.... please don't throw tomatoes TMI

I just rewatched sound of music last night (as someone mentioned-free on abc.com) because I was considering letting my girls watch it. It has an awful lot of romance in it. Yes, it’s ‘tznius’ (although there is a ton of kol isha, if that’s an issue), but I would not consider it appropriate for ‘sheltered’ kids at all.

Yeah

I haven't yet show my kids The Sound Of Music

Not that I think it's a bad movie. Not at all. Actually I love the movie. One of my favorites.

It's just that the romance angle isn't my favorite angle for family movies. So, yeah, I understand your point.

I did show my kids The Newsies. Just stop the movie two minutes before the end, if you don't want them to see the final scene where they kiss.
