Movie /book/song that chnaged your perspective on something? how?

After watching the Hotel Rwanda movie it really enlighted me about the thing that were going on in Africa and how people were suffering and being killed every single day. The movie was about a war going on between two tribes in Rwanda. Everything that was in the movie was based on true events that happened. Women, the elderly and children were all being slaughtered because they were from the wrong tribe. This movie taught me to be thankful for what i have in America. My freedom, my safety, and everything else that those people in Rwanda dont have. It also taught me that nothing should ever be taken for granted.

The movie "Passion of the Christ" played a big role in the world when it first came out. It reminded religious people of what Jesus Christ went through and what he sacrificed for us and i think it helped open up the eyes of a lot of people. i think after watching that movie people wanted to be better people, be more religious, and make better decisions. I personally felt very strongly about changing after i watched this movie. It taught me to not depend on the materialistic things in life and to not take anything for granted and i think others felt that way as well.
