95 Most Inspirational Movies to Boost the Spirits According to Bored Panda

Actually 94, due to a repeat..
"Movies are made for entertainment, yet they also do a great job of inspiring. Both early masterpieces & more recent productions that make it to the list of the most inspirational movies often contain important underlying messages or promote moral lessons or uplifting ideas that will remain relevant no matter how many years have passed. After seeing an uplifting film, you may feel encouraged to make changes in yourself or humanity—that is the desired emotional outcome. And although many inspiring movies rely on the "never give up on your dreams" trope and its equivalents, each does so in its own way by dealing with various life situations that resonate with different people. Below, we've compiled a list of movies that inspire one to do better, work harder, or just hang in there. Motivational movies might just do the job when you need that extra incentive, a little pick-me-up, or simply a good weep to flush out the salts from your system." - boredpanda.com
