I have, also Gandhi, Malcolm X and a few of the others that came up in the search, doesn't mean I like any of them enough to list them in any Top 10 list

Be the same if I tried to do a Top 10 in other categories eg Shaw Brothers films or Noir films etc

Yep! Agree with you there. It's better than Hex though.

All the President's Men? Mr Smith Goes to Washington? All the King's Men? Macbeth (any version)? A Man for All Seasons? Lincoln? Pride? Made in Dagenham? Billy Elliott? I, Daniel Blake? The Wind That Shakes the Barley?

How about Sports films? You don't have to like sports to appreciate a film where sport is one of the main themes. This could include anything from Raging Bull to The Waterboy, Tin Cup to Jerry Maguire. If you like the Rocky movies, you would be halfway there already!

Only film from that list I've seen is Billy Elliot, I did take part in a class reading of Macbeth in school though
