I am puzzled by the way the word "inspirational" is being used in this thread. Doesn't calling a film "inspirational" mean something more than just that it was a very good film? Doesn't it have to inspire you to do something?

If, say, watching "Lawrence of Arabia" made you want to ride a camel, or if "Babette's Feast" made you want to cook a fancy meal, then even if the desire was only fleeting, you would have some justification for calling the film "inspirational."

I can't imagine what some of these films would inspire you to do, and the messages in this thread do not enlighten me.
