Check out CNN's "QUICKVOTE" on inspiring movies
Which movie is the most inspiring?

"8 Mile"

Scroll to lower right to vote. Currently, it's "Life," "Passion," "Music," "Mile."

1. Thanks for the heads up.
For me, a decision between "It's a Wonderful Life" and "The Sound of Music."

Had to go with "Sound of Music."

2. Left Wing Commie Propaganda versus Right Wing Religious Nuts
It's a Wonderful Life is one of the most subersive of American movies. It is opposed to Monopoly Capitalism, greedy businessmen, rapacious development, conservative economic policies.

The Passion is.....er, The Bible according to mel Gibson. Nuff said.

It's a Wonderful Life gets my vote. :)

4. Most inspiring??
Wonderful Life is my absolute favorite movie of all time, but most inspiring??? I voted for 8 Mile. That list is pathetic. Steel Magnolias was more inspiring than any of those movies.

6. Ahh, gee
I love Sound of Music, but how could I ever vote against Jimmy Stewart?

How the hell the other two ended up on this list (no slap at Eminem, but come on?)....
