SIMILAR PICKS / A PERSONAL CONNECTION

If you loved Same Time, Next Year, try these.

The Four Seasons poster 01

Movie / 1981 / Comedy / Drama

The Four Seasons

Why this pick

Like Same Time, Next Year, it uses recurring gatherings across years to gently trace how friendship, marriage, desire, and self-image change; its wit is warm but attentive to accumulating emotional compromises.

Shirley Valentine poster 02

Movie / 1989 / Comedy / Drama

Shirley Valentine

Why this pick

Its intimate, funny-sad portrait of a woman reassessing a long-settled life shares the earlier film’s adult romantic candour, conversational charm, and belief that a brief escape can clarify enduring needs.

45 Years poster 03

Movie / 2015 / Drama

45 Years

Why this pick

A quieter, more piercing study of a long marriage, built from small looks and shifting conversations rather than melodrama. It matches the emotional maturity and delicately destabilising intimacy of Same Time, Next Year.

Enchanted April poster 04

Movie / 1991 / Drama

Enchanted April

Why this pick

This graceful, character-led escape gives adult relationships room to breathe, finding humour and renewal in people briefly removed from their routines—the same tender, restorative register as Mulligan’s film.

Hope Springs poster 05

Movie / 2012 / Drama / Comedy

Hope Springs

Why this pick

An affectionate, unusually frank look at the habits and silences inside a decades-long marriage. Its gentle humour and empathetic attention to adult desire closely suit Same Time, Next Year’s emotional terrain.
