Movies about Supportive friend
As much as we love a good romantic movie, it’s always rewarding to see films that celebrate the beauty (and complexity) of platonic friendships. Whether it’s a tight-knit group of BFFs who embark on a wild trip to New Orleans or a pair of rivals who form an unlikely bond, these titles remind us that friendships can be as beautiful as they are complicated.
Perhaps you’re in the mood for an insightful drama that speaks to the challenges of maintaining friendships through adulthood (because let’s face it, making adult friends is hard), or maybe you’d prefer a lighthearted comedy that follows the misadventures of close pals. Thankfully, streaming services like Hulu and Netflix have all the best options available to stream. Keep reading for 30 of the best movies about friendship.

Nejlepší filmy o přátelství
1. Léon (1994)
- film
- Akce a dobrodružství
Stále dětem říkáme, aby si nebraly sladkosti od cizích lidí, ale nikdy nás nenapadne varovat je, aby se kamarádily s nájemnými vrahy. Důvodem může být ‚Léon‘, protože ve skutečnosti je Mathilda (Natalie Portman, mrazivě intenzivní) 12letá dívka, jejíž život obrátí Léonova neochotná laskavost a péče po brutální vraždě celé její rodiny. Jejich podivné malé přátelství se rozvíjí se vší intenzitou, kterou byste očekávali od trénovaného zabijáka a jeho dětského učedníka. Nepřihlásili byste je do soutěže nejlepších přátel, ale pokud jde o vztahy mezi otcem a dcerou, neexistuje žádný pevnější.
Ashleigh Arnott, úřadující redaktorka Things To Do
2. Frances Ha (2012)
„Jsme stejná osoba s různými vlasy,“ říká Frances Ha o nejlepší kamarádce Sophie. Dvojice – oba dvacátníci Newyorčané – začíná film jako nerozlučná. Pak dospělost vtáhne Sophie do svých rukou. Nastěhuje se ke svému příteli, bankéři, a nechá Frances zmítat se, když sama řeší svou kariéru a život. Problémový vztah dvojice zasáhne bolestně blízko domova pro každého, kdo právě teď zjišťuje, kdo jsou. Je to milostný příběh dvou přátel.

3. Star Trek II: The Wrath Of Khan (1982)
I v chladných hlubinách vesmíru mohou vřelá přátelství vydržet – stačí se podívat na kapitána Kirka a jeho prvního důstojníka Spocka. Pravděpodobně emocionální jádro franšízy, jejich yinyangové přátelství trpí svými vzestupy a pády, ale vyvrcholí v ‚Khan‘. Když se umírající Spock loučí s Kirkem ve strojovně Enterprise, jen ten nejmrazivější blázen neuroní slzu.
Matt Breen, štábní spisovatel
4. Stand by Me (1986)
Málokdo by od příze Stephena Kinga očekával dojemný pohled na pouta mládí, a přesto, Rob Reiner Stand By Me – adaptace novely mistra hororu z roku 1982 Tělo – je obzvláště vřelým a velmi poutavým zobrazením tweenage přátelství. Nevadí, že děj zahrnuje skupinu kamarádů ze střední školy na venkově v Oregonu v padesátých letech, kteří hledají mrtvolu spolužáka, o kterém se říká, že ho srazil vlak. To může znít hrůzostrašně – myslím tím zdrojový materiál is Stephen King – ale nejdůležitější je vše mezi tím: rozhovory, urážky, hádky a usmíření, četné zážitky blízké smrti. ‚Nikdy jsem později neměl žádné přátele, jako ty, které jsem měl, když mi bylo 12‘, zní slavná závěrečná věta, která uznává melancholii v nostalgii filmu: pravdou je, že tito přátelé s vámi do dospělosti jen zřídka zůstanou. Někdy se doslova vryjí do paměti.

5. Swingery
Termín „bromantická komedie“ byl ještě roky vzdálený od toho, aby se stal věcí, ale vztah, který je jádrem tohoto nezávislého hitu definujícího éru, každopádně není založen na frajerské zamilovanosti – působí to jako skutečně zažité mužské přátelství. To proto is skutečné přátelství: Jon Favreau a Vince Vaughn byli kamarády po léta a prorazili spolu hraním bojujících herců, jejichž rozporuplné povahy poskytují rovnováhu jejich širší skupině vrstevníků. Jako Mikey je Favreau citlivý, ale sebezničující, zatímco Vaughnův Trent je nepříjemný, ale zarputile loajální. Ale je jasné, že jeden pro druhého udělají cokoli – ať už si zahrají na wingmana na improvizovaném výletu do Vegas nebo opilí tančí na stole v celonoční jídelně na oslavu toho, že se ten druhý konečně dostal z rozchodu.

The 20 Best Movies About Friendship That Are So True, Besties
Můžeme získat provizi z odkazů na této stránce, ale doporučujeme pouze produkty, které máme rádi. Slib.
I love a good romance like anyone else, but some of the best movies are about the love between friends. We need them now more than ever too, as some of us are just starting to see and hang out with friends for the first time in for-freakin’-ever. These are the best movies about friendships that come in all shapes and sizes—old friends, new friends, big groups, and inseparable pairs. As I was made to sing in Girl Scouts before I even had the wisdom to know what «old friends» meant: make new friends but keep the old. One is silver and the other’s gold!
Invite your buds over and pair one of these friend flicks with the best corner store wine and popcorn you can muster. Or if you’re still separated from your BFFs for cokoliv reason , there’s no shame in a text chain. I feel like half of the messages I’ve sent for the past year are «3, 2, 1, PLAY» for synching up virtual movie nights with friends. An alien looking at my 2020 text history would be so confused. Everybody paused and ready??
