I loved the movie Murphys Romance. It is a romantic comedy. That I can watch over and over again. Fields and Garner work great together.

Sally and James make this one enjoyable. Enough levity and a great build up to a heart felt ending.

Murphy's Romance presents the anxieties of a recently-divorced mother (Sally Fields) trying to carve a new life for herself and her son in a small rural town. Little does she know that the polite but distant pharmacist who refuses to give her a loan may hold all the cards she is hoping for. James Garner is wonderful as the mature widower who finds himself drawn into this woman's life and out of his comfortable routine. Brian Kerwin is very believable as the handsome but self-absorbed and immature ex-husband who shows up to see how much he can recapture of his ex-wife's affections and generosity. Corey Haims is wonderful as the son trying to be a man but wanting a boy's trust in the adults in his life.

It's not an Academy Award winner by any means, but it is a very sweet movie with nice performances from Field and Garner. A definite feel-good romance, and I like those kinds of movies. :)
