If you loved The Sun Shines Bright, try Donovan's Reef

What they share
Both films are directed by John Ford, and they both carry the cozy mood tag, and they sit in Comedy territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Sun Shines Bright, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Donovan's Reef is
John Ford directs his energies toward the South Pacific. A Bostonian spinster travels to French Polynesia to find her long-lost, somewhat disreputable, father. It is exactly the sort of thing you expect, even if you don't expect John Ford to have made it.
