Re: Let's talk about Movies which Inspire You
I can tell you which movies get me all choked up with positive emotion:
Casablanca- the Marseilles scene always get me.
Gettysburg- the defense of Little Round Top by the 20th Maine under Col. Joshua Chamberlain on 7/2/1863. When they charge downhill into the face of the advancing Confederates, I feel like standing up and shouting.
Air Force One- "Get off of my plane." Need I say more? One of the great movie lines of all time.
Band of Brothers- the entire series.
Saving Private Ryan-I still get choked up when the old Ryan kneels down at the grave of Capt. Miller (Hanks).
Space Cowboys- the entire movie. A treat for an old geezer like me.

"If by a liberal, they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind; someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions; someone who cares about the welfare of the people, their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights, their civil liberties; someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicion that grips us; that is what they meant by a liberal, I am proud to be a liberal."
