/tv/, please recommend me some movies similar to Moneyball. The score, the script, the performances, etc. just create a tone that's very uplifting, triumphant, and determined. I really can't think of anything bad about it except for that song his daughter sings.
big fish
Capote, The Social Network, Foxcatcher, Thin Red Line

This was one of the few movies I fell asleep while watching. Sports are not deep enough to merit films, and this was painfully dull the entire time.

aw man I love the scene at the end when he listens to his daughter's CD and you can see all that poignant desire in his eyes. it's a great moment.
I can't really name anything all that similar to it unfortunately. It's a bizarrely underrated movie because it was extremely praised when it came out but people don't seem to talk about it much anymore. It's like the epitome of comfort food as a movie but it's actually pretty brilliant.

Have you heard about Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens? It's an obscure film coming out tomorrow night that I think might be what you're looking for. /tv/ seems to be ignoring it.

I love Social Network (probably my most watched movie) and Foxcatcher was one of my favorites of 2014. I never tried to get into Capote, but I might watch it again (PSH was brilliant). Thin Red Line always seemed a bit odd to me (a Malick war film?), but Tree of Life is beautiful and Badlands is pretty good. Never bothered with New World, and Days of Heaven seemed a bit too sad for me.

I don't think Thin Red Line, New World, and Days of Heaven evoke a very similar feeling to Moneyball but they are all extraordinarily gorgeous movies that are all genuinely life affirming and are deeply moving. If you liked Malick's other stuff then you'll probably like all of them.

how is TTRL similar to any of them?
