Schindler's list. Yeah aliens. It's like that. Go ahead and end us thx.
The House of Spirits or Melancholia
Cloud Atlas
Oooh! I think that's my favourite so far. It would introduce several eras including the ones we only envision in our future, and would introduce a number of concepts about myths, stories and social structures.
I mean best is USSR's 1965 Triumph Over Violence, directed by Romm
Magnolia
Requiem for a dream
Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. 100%.
Under the Skin (2014)
ET
Scary Movie 3
If you know what i mean 😉
Silent night, deadly night 2
zeitgeist
Revenge of The Nerds
Brazil.
Great photography. Great actors good sets. Relatable charachters. And it perfectly encapsulates the curent trends of the world.
Harry Potter; you'll understand every conflict on earth.
Citizen Kane.
Mars Attacks!
Charlie Chaplin Modern Times

L'Arroseur Arrosé. That will show them not to block the sunlight with their ship.

Fellowship, two towers, return of the king. Tell them it's one movie showing how the littlest person can make the biggest difference.
Really?
I mean, a person can make another person's day, sure!
But on real big societal issues? Gooooood luck. I'm waiting on Frodo to level the rich poor divide, to stop wars, and to stop and reverse climate change, but he's crying in a pillow
A certain sci fi movie from 1992
Swap.avi
“American Movie”
Nothing summarizes the dream of freedom and creativity of the human species in the face of incompetency like “American Movie”
A documentary about a couple of regular dudes trying to make a horror movie
Mishima: A Life in Four Parts Playtime Aguirre, the Wrath of God Koyaanisqatsi Enter The Void Oh Brother, Where Art Thou? Once Upon a Time in the West
