movie that changed your life

I see a lot of people listing Wolf Of Wallstreet as a movie that changed there life. It changed my life as well. But, maybe for a different reason...

It changed my life in regard to always practicing business in a ethical and legal way, and doing right by clients; and if you don't it can result in jail-time and heartache.

Exactly. And how things that go off control (in this case drugs and debauchery) cause big problems

You don't have to be ethical, just have to be legal.
 
They have not changed my life but certainly at least once a year I love to see the following movies :
Get Rich or Die Tryin' (2005)
He Got Game (1998)
Black Hawk Down (2001)
 
Fight Club - In particular two quotes: 'The things you own, end up owning you' and 'We buy things we don't need, with money we don't have, to impress people we don't like'.

Probably helped shape my outlook on things when growing up.
 
124 Hours
The Wolf Of Wall Street (not talking about drugs and sex)
Phone Booth
Forrest Gump
Coach Carter
 
The Party (1968) changed my life. I love that movie. Papillon (1973) is also good.
 
But I'm gonna have to say One Eyed Jacks (1961) is my all time favorite.
 
If my life could be changed by a movie, well, what kind of life am i living?

People change by being exposed to foreign ideas. -> People used to get exposed to foreign ideas by reading -> People now don't read -> People watch movies -> Movies are "multimedia" and quick shots ->

Network (1976). Showed that a modern film drama could be constructed like a Shakespearean play, with plenty of insightful soliloquies. Also introduced the new truth that the true "new nations" of the world are the giant corporations and crony business cartels.

I'll stick with movies that just confirmed what I already know....

1) Braveheart - For showing what a man should be willing to do for his freedom.
2) Gladiator - For showing what a man should be willing to do for his freedom.
3) American Beauty - For showing what a man should be willing to do for pussy.
3) About Time - For making a profound statement about time travel, regret and life.
4) Pursuit of Happiness - For proving that you can't chase happiness unless you're miserable.
5) Misery - For proving that the more happy you are the more vulnerable you are to misery.
6) War of The Roses - For teaching me at a young age why I'll never get married.
7) Scarface - For proving that the American Dream is available for anyone willing to work hard enough.

Honorable mentions:

8) The Woodsman - One of the most complicated, disturbing, yet insightful character studies of a pedophile.
9) The Messenger - For expanding my narrow, ice cold view of war casualties. Also a tear jerker.
10) American History X - For showing you can only have 1 Ed in this world. And it's not Edward Furlong.

I know seems like a crap movie right? Well it is. But, it was so boring my co-worker and I were watching it when I was 17, she was like 14. She was a redhead and crazy..and horny as hell.

We stopped watching the movie and started banging every day for a month. That movie kicked it off, and it was my first redhead..so you could say it was life changing lmao
