An animated film, "Mind Game", now finally available in an edition that won't cost an arm and a leg, is a high-ranking favorite of mine by any measure. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0452039/ https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0452039/ The idea's simple: a young man hooks up with a girlfriend he lost touch with, and then dies because he doesn't have the nerve to act when the moment demands it. But God decides to toss him back into the world a few moments before his death to give it another shot, and ... and then things truly go off the chain. (Pay VERY close attention to the montages at the beginning and end of the movie; they make it worth a second viewing, since they snap a great many things into focus.) It's not just thought-provoking, since it tackles all kinds of issues about free will and the meaning of one's life, but it's also animated with wild abandon and gleeful energy. I can't recommend this movie highly enough in general, but this is as good an excuse to talk about it as any. (edited to add IMDB link)
