If you have a moment, or if you could signal boost this, I would be very grateful for any recommendations for vintage comedies featuring boats.

My three year old is obsessed with boats. He also insisted he wanted to watch Sabrina with me, and apparently enjoyed it very much.

I am unsure what exactly he found pleasing about it besides the brief boat appearances--inquiries were inconclusive--but he indicated that he'd very much like to try more classic films as long as they contained boats occasionally.

Thank you for any help you are able to provide.

I am a huge fan of your three year old and we need to help him immediately.

The Philadelphia Story contains a model boat, but its appearances are so infrequent I’m guessing he probably will not be satisfied. To Have and Have Not and Key Largo both involve Humphrey Bogart piloting small boats, so he might enjoy those in a similar vein to Sabrina. If you’d like something colorful and bright, there is 1950’s Treasure Island with Robert Newton—a pretty mid movie by my dim recollection, but he may like Newton’s very scrungly pirate on his big boat. If your kid can handle the possibility of murders, there is also the Miss Marple mystery Murder Ahoy, which has a very funny cast running around a small docked boat.

If his boat interest possibly extends to other modes of oceanic transport, I also always recommend Yellow Submarine, which is a fantastic animated movie that spends a ton of time exploring fantastical seas and has a great submarine as a main character. If you enjoy gorgeous, strange visuals and are not allergic to Beatles music, you might love this movie too—it is a beautiful work of art.

I hope other help in the reblogs! I’m definitely missing some iconic boat movies (like mutiny on the bounty, which I haven’t watched yet)—everyone help this wonderful kid out.

EDIT: I am an idiot and Key Largo might be too scary for a little kid. (People die onscreen and there are gangsters.) Murder Ahoy might also fall into this category. Someone help out our asker who actually has a grasp on what’s appropriate for a little one. (I stand by Yellow Submarine, though.)

#before anyone yells at me for not including capt blood I do not like capt blood & wont rec.#yes baz is there w an iconic bad french accent and yes it’s clearly a test pilot for everything that makes Robin Hood work. but It Sucks.#asks

ruhgh the pilot. the pilotttt.......... the patient getting wilson to reflect on house's actions and he barely has to examine before determining with a little smile that "yeah, he cares about me :) " like it's such a little thing. utterly precious. but also very smoothly gets the audience to think similarly: people will say anything, it's what they do that really shows what they mean and how they feel. love is a verb love is a doing word

#house md #the pilot is sooo strong #very pretty too but that's not here nor there rn #and like you understand on a surface level how all the stuff house does raises hell around the hospital #particularly wrt a patient's treatment #like yeah he does malpractice and he can be caustic which to any passerby would look like he's torturing people for the hell of it #but we see it all go down from house's perspective so we see how thoroughly he dedicates himself to his patients #he'll run tests ON HIMSELF if he must if it will benefit the patient #he'll speak carefully yet not mince his words if he talks to the patient 1 on 1. he DOES want them to get better. whatever that entails #he cares. just not in a way that is typical or even believable at times #and caring about wilson???? EXTREMELY OBVIOUS but only if you like. Get house #son of coma guy shows this mutated endearment be reciprocated #by way of house urging wilson to leave so he's safe from legal harm when. yknow #“i don't want to push this until it breaks”#only then for wilson to go and establish an alibi for BOTH of them #aouruurhghhghh i'm going to start punching HOLES IN THE WALLS

I feel like if you explained Hal Jordan what being multi gendered or gender fluid was he'd be very confused and then she'd say with full confidence that it's that way for everyone

#hal jordan #i don't think they'd be bigoted just in the way 'everyone struggles with gay thoughts' people often are she'd just be slightly rude because #he is not up to date on earth things esp things not talked about in his environment with the air force and all #i don't imagine test pilots are much different #GA: no? im entirely a man and nothing else for example #GL: ? like all the time? entirely? thats weird. ...
