10 Pride & Prejudice (2005)

• Available on Prime Video

There have been many versions of Jane Austen’s beloved story about opposites attracting, but Pride & Prejudice has never been so whimsically and magically brought to life than in the 2005 versions starring Keira Knightley as the irrepressible Elizabeth Bennet and Matthew MacFadyen as the inscrutable Mr. Darcy.

While living in the English countryside with her parents and numerous sisters, Lizzy feels the mounting pressure to get married, but her free spirit makes this a daunting task. That is until she meets the dashing and cold Mr. Darcy, whose stoicism threatens to ruin any chance at romance before it’s even begun.

9 I Capture The Castle (2003)

• Available on Prime Video

Based on the novel of the same name, I Capture The Castle takes place almost entirely in an abandoned -but no less beautiful- castle in the English countryside. Inhabited by the Mortmain family, it becomes the backdrop for courtship between Rose Mortmain and Simon, one of her handsome neighbors.

The movie is primarily told through the eyes of spunky Cassandra, Rose’s younger sister, who buoys the film with her zest for life and spirited adventures. Set in the 1930s, there’s an abundance of cozy vintage garments, and a strapping Henry Cavill to fill them out.

8 Emma (2020)

• Available on HBOmax

Though it was also made to some success in the ’90s, this Emma is a whirlwind of societal satire and brightly colored petticoats and is the best adaptation of Jane Austen’s story to date. It focuses primarily on Emma Woodhouse, a wealthy socialite whose privilege has ensured she won’t have to worry about seeking an appropriate suitor, giving her ample time to do so on behalf of others (whether they like it or not).

Emma (played with sarcastic radiance by Anya-Taylor Joy) becomes the matchmaker of her fictional Georgian English town, and after a series of misadventures, comes to realize that she doesn’t yet know enough about the world to be giving such heavy-handed advice.

7 The Secret Of Moonacre (2010)

• Available on Vudu

When a young orphan girl goes to live with her taciturn uncle Sir Benjamin in the English countryside, she never imagines the sort of fantastic adventure she’ll go on once she starts unraveling the family history. As she explores the looming estate and its surrounding lands, she begins to discover the meaning behind an ancient curse and its hold over all the occupants.

The curse passed down through generations, caused a rift between two families, and it’s up to little Maria Merryweather to set things right. Full of gorgeous costumes, a talented cast, and truly intricate sets, it’s like stepping into a fantasy book (the film was in fact based on “The Little White Horse”).

6 Moonrise Kingdom (2012)

• Available on Prime Video

If just one Wes Anderson movie could be selected as the most Cottagecore of them all (and there are several), Moonrise Kingdom would be it. The charming film focuses on two young lovers running away from life’s impositions and expectations, and viewers escape with them as they plunge deeper into their fantasies.

Much of the “real world” is left behind in favor of a much more idealized one set in the ’60s, as the adolescents try to hold onto as much of their whimsical childhoods as possible. The movie tackles the loss of innocence in a frothy way, yet it somehow makes the series issues more palatable.

5 The Tales Of Beatrix Potter (1971)

• Available for rent on Apple TV, Prime Video

Long before the CGI-filled Peter Rabbit, Beatrix Potter’s world of anthropomorphic animals was brought to life in 1971. The Tales of Beatrix Potter combines dancing (done by the Royal Ballet) and marvelous costumes to tell its stories, brimming with popular characters from Potter’s beloved classics.

Cottagecore fans will delight in the frolicking frogs and bounding bunnies that perform “The Tale of Mr. Jeremy Fisher” and “The Tale of Mrs. Tiggy-Winkle”, who seem to inhabit a world where whimsy and authenticity come together in a captivating amalgamation.

4 Little Women (2019)

• Available on Starz and DirecTV

Both the 1994 version of Little Women starring Winona Ryder and the 2019 version starring Emma Watson are wonderful examples of Cottagecore, featuring several talented, bright, and inquisitive girls on the cusp of womanhood navigating their way in Victorian society.

The 2019 movie has a more prominent aesthetic than the ’90s version, with every scene a gluttonous screenshot opportunity for Pinterest. Highly “Grammable” costumes and settings are only made possible by the truly wonderful acting from the female leads, all of whom dazzle in a unique way.

3 The Secret Garden (1993)

• Rent on Prime Video and Google Play

When a little girl’s parents tragically pass away, she’s forced to go live with her recalcitrant uncle, whose surly disposition and reserved personality don’t afford the girl much respite from her grief. To cheer herself up, she begins to explore his sprawling estate.

Eventually, she discovers a garden that’s so overgrown it’s become hidden from the rest of the world. Knowing it can once again retain its former glory, she recruits the servant boy to help her restore it. The Secret Garden is a timeless and quotable classic that has calmed the hearts of ’90s babies for decades.

2 Kiki’s Delivery Service (1989)

• Stream on HBOmax

Studio Ghibli has contributed greatly to the Cottagecore aesthetic over the years, but its most prominent title happens to be the first film it released to American audiences. Kiki’s Delivery Service, about a young teenager named Kiki -and her talking cat!- who spends a year training in a seaside town to become a witch, has been a favorite of fans for thirty years.

No sooner has she mastered flying on her broomstick than she’s created a courier service, delivering goods to all the villagers in her community. Despite business taking off she doubts her own abilities, and must martial her own self-doubt in order to regain them.

1 FairyTale: A True Story (1997)

• Stream on Prime Video and Paramount+

When two cousins Elsie and Frances both lose their parents unexpectedly, they spend their time in Yorkshire, England, processing their grief by frolicking in fields and skipping through creeks. One day quite by accident, they stumble upon faeries in a meadow and eagerly snap a few pictures.

The pictures suddenly catapult them to international fame, and they get the attention of such prominent celebrities of the era as Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (the author of the Sherlock Holmes mysteries), and Harry Houdini the famous magician. As the media tries to determine if the faeries are real or not, it doesn’t matter to the young girls, who are just happy to have found them.
