I consume multiple movies at a time to avoid forming an organically-created thought.

In the Name of the Father 1993
The fact that English curriculum does not include the history of the atrocities commited against the Irish (let alone any other country) should be considered a war crime in itself (and I say this as an English person brought up in a royalist family). Shame on us.

Waiting to Exhale 1995
This could have easily fallen into the trap of overly-sentimental and frothy, but it strikes the right balance between presenting relationships and genuine feeling without descending into trauma p0rn.
If you're overlooking this because it's female-led and could be dismissed as a 'chick-flick' then please don't. It's a lovely and thoughtful watch. Angela Bassett and Loretta Devine give particularly strong performances.
