Iconic Movies That Are Still Actual Today

Cinema has given us quite a few iconic movies over the decades. Some of them just had incredible entertainment value, some of them pushed the boundaries of technology at the time, and yet another group tried to add a layer of criticism towards society in their meaning.

It’s the last group that usually ages the worst, since they’re very much tied to a period in history. But did you know that some of those iconic movies are actually still ringing true today? Let’s take a look!

RoboCop

While RoboCop didn’t really have any deeper meaning at the time of its creation (apart from “yay, robot policeman!”), the recent remake updated the story to modern standards. The original already had the moral dilemma of how far we can go in cybernetically enhancing people before they lose who they are as a person, and the remake pretty much shoves that dilemma in your face.

Les Intouchables

Based on a true story set in a time when there were no two bigger dividing factors between people than race and wealth, a rich white handicapped person hires a poor black person to be his caretaker. A wonderful tale of how friendship can overcome all the differences between people, no matter how much society wants you to believe that those differences can’t be overcome.

1984

I mean, Google is already listening to everything we say or do, 1984’s plotline isn’t too far off. I for one welcome our oppressive overlords that can hear everything I say but hopefully can’t read my thoughts yet.
