Saw this interesting question on Reddit and thought I'd ask all you wonderful people on here

For me personally. Either Truman Show or Hotel Rwanda

The zone of interest is the one that springs to mind. Real visceral account of the horror. Something we can never collectively forget.

Not a movie, but a TV series.

Brian Cox - Universe.

The episode about black holes is a mind melter that still bothers me to this day. I watch it often.

The rate that time is able to pass is always an interesting concept I think.

Yes that's where it started. But it's a pretty deep rabbit hole to get into

I loved them and might watch them again. I have read the first two books too. It's interesting and thought provoking. But I would still rate Interstellar higher.

They’re amazing. Star Wars is dead to me now. Dune is on another level entirely. Reading the novels now.

If you can find a film called "the red turtle", ( Or "la tourte rouge" -it's french title) I recommend it.

Very philosophical.

Everything everywhere all at once is another one which is much deeper under the surface. It’s ultimately about nihilism.

The Joy Luck club, it was the first time I cried at a particularly harrowing scene involving a baby.

That and of all things Knowing with Nic Cage, I already had a lot of groundwork but that changed a lot for me

I think they were ok, but to be honest, I thought it's impossible to tell the story in like 2.5 hours.

I remember reading the book as a kid, I read a kids version of it. Even then I think it was rushed, if you read the whole original you probably think it's crap.

I do love sci fi, but I never got into interstellar, I thought it was very forgettable.

I prefer the Trekkie movies, star wars, even the old Battlestar Galactica.
