As the year comes to a close, it’s only natural to say goodbye to the past 12 months and welcome a fresh start with a true celebration. Whether you’re hosting a lavish party or cozying up under a blanket to watch the ball drop, there’s nothing quite like turning on a movie centered around New Year’s Eve to elevate your spirits and set a positive tone for the upcoming year.
Luckily, there are a number of New Year’s Eve-themed watches that are more than perfect for the occasion. Think beloved Hollywood classics like Sunset Boulevard and Rent or some of our favorite seasonal rom-coms like When Harry Met Sally and While You Were Sleeping to channel your inner hopeless romantic. Even better, these festive picks are available to watch on a range of streaming platforms—so all you have to do is sit back, relax, and tune into your film of choice—with hopefully a bowl of grapes or a coupe of champagne in hand. No matter the genre, we’ve rounded up the best New Year’s Eve movies to watch come January 1.
