This one is tougher than Summer but there's a few movies that stick out for me that really bring out the Fall atmosphere.

 

Halloween(original)

Hocus Pocus

Mean Girls

 

What else?


Nice topic! This is tricky.  
 

I can’t really think of many movies that really epitomize Fall. The one that comes to mind is “when harry met sally” with all the Fall scenes in Central Park. But I don’t love that movie. 
 

A lot of sports movies set in Fall— like Rudy— I feel are more “sports” movies rather than bringing out the season.

I agree, I'm not sure how many good choices are out there for this one.  I think it's easier to do Summer(we've done that topic before) and Winter.  I love Fall and it's my second favorite time of the year after Summer but there's really not a ton of movies that epitomize the feeling of Fall.

 

Agree with the commentary on Rudy and other sports movies, they don't really feel like Fall.  Similar with Halloween movies but I do think the original Halloween and Hocus Pocus evoke the Fall spirit for me at least

One of my favorite movies primarily because it had the very very young Jennifer Connelly in it.  But it does remind me of innocence and it does have a fall like atmosphere to it.  Leaves changing on the trees in the background 

 

 

The house Jennifer lived in in the movie I drive past it’s in Montclair, New Jersey.  Also cool to see Shea Stadium make a cameo in it.

 

 

But um just don’t take my man card away now 😊

I've never seen this movie and it was sounding intriguing until your last sentence LOL....too much of a chick flick?  I mean I had Mean Girls on my list haha

While it's not a movie that has the mood of Fall per say, I would say Rocky

 

 

 

The first fight with Spider Rico took place on Thanksgiving in the movie I believe.  If you look at that clip of Rocky running the weather outside seems Fallish as well as when he runs up the steps.  Rocky has on long sleeves and sweatpants but you see no ice or snow on the ground.  Also, the lakes or water he ran by haven't iced up yet.  

 

 

And oh yeah this is the same focus I expect from Josh and crew Monday night after watching that 😁

One of my favorite movies ever but I would categorize it under a Winter movie

It takes place in November which is Autumn on the calendar.
