Comment on Ask HN: Movies that motivate you?

Comments

Fight Club : A bit over the top, but works for me.

Cidade de Deus (City of God) : Overcoming adversity, based on real life story.

Le fabuleux destin d'Amelie Poulain (Amelie) : Beautiful movie about seeing the world in a different way. Love is worth fighting for. Don't be afraid to be eccentric.

Das Leben der Anderen (The Lives Of Others) : Even the harshest repressive regimes cannot re-educate and brainwash all the humanity out of people.

Das Boot : How I feel when I need to finish a project while the management throws "depth charges" (feature requests ;-) ) at me.

Hotel Rwanda : People are capable of both extreme violence and extreme kindness.

Zerkalo (The Mirror) by Tarkovksy : Nostalgia. Reminds me to keep connected to my parents and family. Eventually they'll be gone, with only dreams and memory fragments of them left.
