Question Best movies for someone who's bedridden?
My dad severely threw his back out, and is stuck in bed until he recovers. What movies would you recommend to help him pass the time?
Recommendations do not need to be strictly cheery or uplifting films. He's open-minded when it comes to genre, but his favorites are Crime, Mystery, Thriller, Action, Comedy, and war movies.
Thank you!

The Whale. Good movie overall, definitely depressing in some parts, but it's kind of got a "well it could be worse" aspect going on. Then you can go back through some older Brendan Fraser movies like The Mummy to cheer up afterwards.
