What are some meaningful movies you have seen? One for me is Tuesdays with Morrie and Aurore le film.
Tuesdays with Morrie: columnist Mitch Albom recounts his time spent with his 78 year old sociology professor at Brandeis University, Morrie Schwartz, who was dying from Lou Gehrig's disease. Albom, a former student of Schwartz, had not corresponded with him since attending his college classes sixteen years earlier.
Albom is a successful columnist to the Detroit Free Press after failing to become a pianist. After seeing Schwartz on Nightline, Albom visits Schwartz. They arrange to meet on Tuesdays. The Detroit Newspaper Strike frees Albom from work and allows him frequent flights from his home in Detroit to Schwartz in Boston. The resulting book is based Albom's recount of Schwartz lectures, quotes, experiences, and conversations. It is visited by frequent flashbacks and allusions to contemporary events between each visit.
It's a very meaningful movie with beautiful quotes.
Aurore le film: It's about a girl who gets abused (middle of the movie). The movie's meaning in my opinion is how bad child abuse can be, how some hide it, false priests, and how some children try to reach out but no one believes them. Not to mention how easily people can get away with it.
This movie is in french but on Youtube they have it with english subtitles. So if you watch it you'll learn French and Child abuse at the same time.

If you've seen any meaningful movies as well, please feel free to post it. Good meaningful would be nice but it could be whatever. Or it could have impacted you in some way.
