    High Noon - Just a great classic on courage

    Gone With the Wind - I love Melanie Wilkes' character as it is probably the best example of proper Christian behavior, ie not being judgemental or using your morals to imagine yourself superior to others)

    The Passion - I just love the part where Jesus crushes the snake. I try to take on that attitude when I am tempted. I hate that snake.

    Zulu - Great example of working your plan and sticking to it

    The Searchers - Great example of just being a stubborn, relentless sob

    The Holy Grail - Because strange women, lying in ponds, distributing swords, really is no basis for a system of government

    Awww, Crumpet, I loved the Anne of Green Gables Movies...can you believe Megan Follows just turned 40?

    Anyhow, for me, recently, Million Dollar Baby..

    Amelie
    Hotel Rwanda
    The Pianist
    Schindlers List
    Garden State

    Some of these (Amelie, Garden State) inspire me to really live life, they are happy, beautiful movies and I strongly recommend them. Other movies (Hotel Rwanda, The Pianist) are the types that really show you just how evil humans can get and leave you dumbfounded-but also aware, I think it is important to be very aware of the dark times in our history (even recent history-1994: Hotel Rwanda) as humans.

    Gladiator and Braveheart

    They just want to make me sieze the day. I want to find my true calling or destiny and fulfill it. They both inspire me to step up and be the leader I want to be. To start a revolution, to control a mob.
