many of course, but just to say one: "Powder" is very special

and
this is not a movie-movie but very inspirational:

Amy Purdy: Living beyond limits
--------------------------------
Amy Purdy: Living beyond limits | Video on TED.com
When she was 19, Amy Purdy lost both her legs below the knee. And now ... she's a pro snowboarder. In this powerful talk, she shows us how to draw inspiration from life's obstacles.

Fight Club
District 13 (This one comes from my personal love of parkour. The movie is meh, but the stunts are amazing and make me want to go running)
Watchmen
Lord of the Rings: Return of the King (Don't laugh. Frodo got stabbed, poisoned by a giant spider, and had his finger bitten off to dunk a ring in some lava. That takes balls)

Life is Beautiful - Attitude is everything

Pursuit of Happyness - Never give up

Seabiscuit - When things look grim, always have hope

Auntie Mame (with Rosslind Russell). A nice reminder to be yourself and celebrate life

So many others

Every batman movie I know:

HE BEGINS; HE FALLS; HE RISES


batman begins and the dark knight are the most close to my heart because of the courage and the potential it shows us.. every human being of doing good,feeling worthy of living; which can be forgotten from time to time

The Diving Bell and Butterfly -- Life is short and unexpected, you just have to do what you love and try out new stuff, love and be loved, grow and learn.

The movie begins with a man lying in bed and opening his left eye. He soon finds out that he can't speak and is completely disabled -- only his left eye and brain are working.

Vaganova will become famous soon enough
Default Oddly enough...

One of the movies that has been weirdly inspirational and I have no idea WHY is Frontline's "House of Saud". I had to watch it in History class and it was really, really inspiring. I have no idea why...

It taught me to stop trying to visualize my goals (which doesn't work for me) and start following my inner sense of 'go thattaway'. So I did.
