Looking for little bits of wisdom people have gleamed from movies and tv. Doesn’t have to be the moral of the whole story, it could be a single scene, or a character development - but it should have been helpful or relevant to you personally. There’s already been a humorous thread on the same topic, so I’d like to keep this limited to actually helpful or insightful things. Feel free to spoil.
My example - the Christian Slater’s renegade DJ movie - he inadvertently encourages a kid to commit suicide. When he finds out what happens he tells kids that are depressed to not give up but instead to act out. What I got out of this was the idea that if it seems like there’s nothing to live for, there’s a brights side - this means there’s also nothing to lose. If you are really down and out, it’s a great time to task risks and do the things you were always afraid to do.
