Fall is pretty much here, and while some mark the season with apple-picking, hot cider, and various other hallmarks of #ChristianGirlAutumn, others prefer to spend it exactly the way we spent summer: parked on the couch, watching our favorite cozy movies on repeat. Whether you’re looking to have your faith in love restored by Harrison Ford, or you’re in need of some witticism from Robin Williams that will absolutely make you weep, our list covers fall’s must-see movies.
Crack your windows open for that cool, crisp air and get the tea kettle ready, because below are 20 of the best fall movies—from stories actually set in the fall, to films that just encompass or represent fall in some way—to get you through to December.
Autumn in New York (2000)
I mean…how could I not include this one? Title aside, this Winona Ryder tearjerker features many of the things I most associate with fall, including Central Park, small museums, and a woman dressed up as Emily Dickinson. We love to see it (and cry at it)! —Emma Specter
