Name a movie that affected you deeply

Come and See, 1985 Soviet movie about the Nazi occupation of Belarus, and the atrocities they committed.
This movie disturbed me so badly, I didn't watch any other war movies for several months.
 
On Deadly Ground comes as close as I get to being moved deeply by a movie. Here is a man doing what he believes in (protecting the environment) and takes names.

Wow. I would have found a way to be in his company for a least a few minutes. He must have had an appreciative obit. Not too many like that. John Basilone comes to mind, don't know of a movie for him like the Audie Murphy story, only as presented in The Pacific, the series following Band of Brothers.

He was very low-key about his service history and averse to attracting attention to himself.
Being agnostic myself, he is one of two self-professed Christians I admire as exemplary representatives of their faith, the other being Jimmy Carter.

What's the Alabama connection to the 'Hacksaw Ridge' film?

The World War II movie tells the story of the nation's first conscientious objector to win the Medal of Honor, who lived in Piedmont toward the end of his life.

"Tom Horn" (Steve McQueen)
"Saving Private Ryan" (the Private Ryan opening scene in France at the fallen solder`s graves), very realistic D-Day landings and Tom Hanks after being shot dying scene ending !!
Very tearfully moving for me every time I watch these BR DVDs.
Some other movies too.
 
One that comes to mind is 2001: A Space Odyssey. The beginning where they show primates and one eventually uses a bone to kill another primate.
