Were the World Mine (2008)

This modern retelling of Midsummer’s Night Dream is a fantastic musical that does not disappoint.
Be My Valentine, Charlie Brown (1975)
This is the original Peanut’s Valentine special. Poor Charlie Brown — all he wants is to receive a valentine. He watches all his friends get them, but alas, none for him. This is an all-time classic that cannot be missed.
