I would like to see a McGregor film, but don't know where to start. . .something not violent or grim.

Miss Potter, Down With Love, or Beginners are all good. And Big Fish.

The Pillow Book - because it's an eye opener - in more ways than one! LOL! No, I think you'll want to avoid that one.
I think one of his best performances is in The Ghost(The Ghost Writer in the US). There he plays a somewhat naïve writer who goes to write a former PM's memoirs. It's a very good performance from him, and I love the film as well.

I'm a big EM fan, however my favorite thing he was in wasn't a movie or acting job at all. It's a documentary series/trip he did with his friend Charlie Boorman. It's called Long Way Round. It's usually on Netflix.

Salmon fishing in the Yemen and beginners are both great and lovely movies.

I would say Moulin Rouge comes first and then Trainspoting,Big Fish and Ghost Writer.

His BEST - for me - "Moulin Rouge". Nicole Kidman was nominated for an Oscar for it, but many, many critics commented that Ewan's performance was better than hers. I also liked "The Island", but I'm a bit of a sci-fi geek, so it might not be to your taste. Also loved "Brassed Off" and "Ghost Writer".

My favourites are Trainspotting and Shallow Grave, but they're probably not what you're looking for.
Try Moulin Rouge, Big Fish or Little Voice.
