which movies have most inspired you?
That’s a wonderful story. Congratulations.
Gary Cooper is a weak actor in my humble opinion, yet there he is in many of my favorite movies.
My brother talks about that one. I can’t say I’ve seen it but want to.
Fiddler on the Roof: about “tradition” in a world where far too much has no value or sentiment at all anymore.
“Red Dawn” and every Chuck Norris movie.
Yes. We were with about 25 others viewing the movie (The Mighty Macs), but we all applauded at the end. I was sitting down the row from the coach of the football team of a local small college, and his wife turned to him and said, “You’d better get your whole team in here to see this movie.”
I heard about it on Fox & Friends where it was featured twice, but I don’t think it received any other publicity. They didn’t even have a viewing for the local critics, so it got nothing there either. I tried to get our local budget theatre (community run) to show it, and the manager thought that they couldn’t fill the theatre for the whole week. I disagree. I think that the movie had a universal message — work hard, work together, BELIEVE, and you shall succeed.
Great movie.Spoken in German with English subtitles.
Other great German movies:
Sophie Scholl - The Final Days
Goodbye, Lenin.
The Lives of Others
I believe you will seriously enjoy Those Old Westerns
I assume you meant that question to cover a lifetime of movie going. To that end, I can think of many.
However, I began to think about recent movies that I considered inspiring. Only a few recent movies came to mind.
I would include Facing the Giants, Flywheel, and Fireproof. I haven't seen Courageous but I'm looking forward to seeing it.
Red Dawn.
