I love August Rush. We bought it without even seeing it b/c I just had that vibe that it was going to be a good one and I was so right.
As for your list my fav in there is Searching for Bobby Fisher. It is a beautiful movie and one I have watched over and over.
The movie I am trying to find in the house right now is Love Actually. (A British Christmas Movie) I love the disconnect of the different families and how they all tie in at the end. Of course this is certainly NOT a movie for small children b/c of certain scenes but if anyone has not seen it I highly recommend it for when the kids go to bed.
