Few scenes in film have achieved the inspirational resonance of Rocky charging up the steps of the Philadelphia Museum of Art. Hurray for training montages!

Gandhi is one of the most inspirational figures of the 20th century (if not all time.) This award-winning biopic is thus an extremely inspirational film.
