Can anyone recommend a “feel-good” Easter theme movie
With only a limited amount of tasteful nudity?

3. Since I am having lamb tomorrow....
How about "The Silence of the Lambs"?

True story! I have a woman friend who loves kiddie movies (forget the nudity, even tasteful) and never pays attention to movie reviews.

Years ago she was visiting someone out of town and they were going to watch movies one evening. They rented "The Silence of the Lambs", my friend thinking it was some cute movie about cuddly animals. (Aside: Having seen live sheep in the flesh, they are NOT cuddly and stink to high heaven.) Jeez, was she floored at what she saw.

4. Easter Parade
with Fred Astaire and Judy Garland.

It's where the song of the same name comes from, and you'll be surprised at the context.

5. In my house
our "Easter" movie this year will be the School of rock with the most excellent Jack Black. But Easter Parade is ok too.

6. Harvey
Ok, it has nothing to do with the holiday; but Harvey is a pooka in the form of a six-foot rabbit, who's visible only to Elwood Dowd.

Elwood likes to drink (possibly a little too much), and is kind and generous with everyone he meets. He lives with his sister and his niece, who are serious type-A personalities.
They're horribly uptight about Elwood's invisible pal, and attempt to have him committed.

The movie's basically about the value of human kindness.

No nudity, no foul language...and it's hilarious!

7. I once had an Energizer Bunny screensaver....
and he made guest appearances. So, when I working on an Excel spreadsheet, he'd come marching across the screen. Loads of fun.

Off the subject, but what the heck?

"The guy in the Easter Bunny suit kicked his ass!"

"All I said was that the Easter Bunny at the Menlo Park Mall was more convincing."

12. Easter Parade - Judy Garland, Fred Astaire, Ann Miller
No nudity, but Ann's got legs that go up to her neck.
