Similar Films


I was wondering if you fine folks might recommend some similar films as this.

Specifically films where people come together to help each other out.

As well as farm type films about regular folks. This film reminds of of Places in the Heart as well. I like movies like this. If anyone has any suggestions I would appreciate it greatly.

I don't know if they're really that similar or not but for different reasons that I won't bore anyone by attempting to detail I kind of was reminded of these film's tonality while re-watching Thr River recently.

Days Of Heaven
Witness
All The Right Moves
Field Of Dreams
The War
October Sky
Casey's Shadow
Tender Mercies
Raggedy Man
Silkwood
Norma Rae
Lillies Of The Field

Again, I may be the only one that feel's those similarites though.

And don't forget Country (1984). That makes a trio of very similar films released the same year (along w/ The River and Places in the Heart).
