Galentine’s Day? Malentine’s Day? Sailentine’s Day? A film for each!

The London-based Instagram page AllOnTheBoard made a post today about the so-called Galentine’s Day, ahead of tomorrow’s Valentine’s Day. Galentine’s Day, for those of you who don’t know, refers to women who prefer to hang out with their friends. So what they’ve done is, they made a bunch of puns for other types of Valentine’s Day, so I thought I’d recommend a movie for each of them, in case you’re staying home tomorrow and/or spending it with whomever.

Here we go! Shout-out to AllOnTheBoard, give them a follow 🙂
