If staying in for New Year’s Eve is your jam, curl up with one of these thematic rom-coms to keep the night calm but festive.
‘When Harry Met Sally…’
To some, When Harry Met Sally… is a fall favorite, but for others it reads New Year’s Eve. In any case, there are multiple NYE scenes, and the film ends on the beloved holiday, making it totally appropriate to stream tonight for a comfortable night in.
When Harry Met Sally… is streaming now on Paramount+.
‘New Year’s Eve’
If you want a totally on-theme NYE rom-com, watch the film New Year’s Eve. It’s one of the rom-coms that follows multiple storylines on the same holiday, so stream it with your friends this evening then reunite on Valentine’s Day and Mother’s Day for the two other respective films in the unofficial trilogy.
New Year’s Eve is streaming now on Max.
‘The Holiday’
The Holiday ends on NYE which makes it eligible to watch tonight. If this was the first festive film you watched at Christmastime, bookend the season by making it the last.
The Holiday is streaming now on Starz.
‘Bridget Jones’s Diary’
Like other films on this list, audiences have differing opinions on when the best time to watch Bridget Jones’s Diary is. For some, it’s a Christmas film, and to others, it’s purely wintry. We think it’s the perfect New Year’s Eve watch thanks to Bridget’s affinity for New Year’s resolutions and the iconic NYE meet cute in the film.
Bridget Jones’s Diary is streaming now on Paramount+.
