They’re not movies with John Galt speeches, and most of them aren’t really ideological at all. But the messages or the values are there.
Amazing Grace (2007)
John Newton was a slave trader who was converted to Christianity. He renounced his previous life and became an evangelical minister in the Church of England, an abolitionist, and the author of a beautiful hymn. “Was blind but now I see,” indeed. Among the people who heard his preaching was a young member of parliament, William Wilberforce, who was inspired to lead a long campaign for the abolition of slavery—from his maiden speech in 1789 to the final passage of the Abolition Act a month after his death in 1833. This movie reminds us that humanity has made great progress toward freedom, that each battle for freedom can be long and seemingly futile, but that the goal is worth time and money and effort>

Koch-Backed CATO Institute: ‘Time for the U.S. to Have Open Borders’
The Cato Institute, a think tank partially founded by the billionaire, pro-mass immigration Koch brothers, is advocating for full open borders to the United States.

Why are you posting this leftist libertarian stuff here?
CATO Institute Immigration
https://www.cato.org/immigration
“Most Americans are immigrants or descended from immigrants who sought opportunity and freedom on our shores. They and their children worked hard, assimilated, and added to our nation’s prosperity. Immigrants today continue to become Americans and, in the process, make the United States a wealthier, freer, and safer country. However, our current immigration system excludes most peaceful and healthy immigrants. Congress should look to America’s past for inspiration to expand and deregulate legal immigration.

1/10 for this list — Amazing Grace.
As is so common with your posting history, there is a homosexual advancing component to your postings.
CATO Institute has been a powerful libertarian force in advancing the gay power agenda.
I haven’t seen Amistad, the true story of a bunch of blacks kidnapped by slavery who took over command of their captors ship. But as I understand it, it’s told from the white man’s eyes and the black slaves are pretty much relegated to the background of their own story.
That aside, I nominate a Roy Rogers film, Southward Ho, that has an anti-gun control message throughout the movie.

Heck my favorite movie is "Gone With the Wind" or "Wizard of Oz" both released in 1939.
PERFECT FOR TODAY, AND ONE OF MY FAVORITES, V FOR VENDETTA.
You are advancing libertarianism to conservatives with one of the top libertarian organizations pushing the homosexual agenda and open borders.
