Live Poll: IMDb Poll Board: Favorite Movie About Independence
Movies about independence capture the spirit of self-determination, and the pursuit of freedom. These films explore themes of liberation, rebellion, and the struggle for autonomy in various contexts, be it on a personal, societal, or national level. This poll is dedicated to the fight for freedom and independency. Here are IMDb poll board members' favorite movies about independence.
Which of these movies with a sense of independence is your favorite?
List: https://www.imdb.com/list/ls565890289/
Poll: https://www.imdb.com/poll/yFZcH0sRXPg/
Notes/Rules:
1. Max 2 choices per user.
2. I am taking a liberal meaning of independence. It's not just nation's independence, rather from any kind of restrictions (that includes nation's independence though), but a positive one.
3. A sentence from the member about the kind of independence it represents would be great.

Mild digression:
Has anyone ever noticed a movie where ALL THE RATINGS have been removed.
I suspect Earth (IV) was massively review bombed. It came up in my advance search for movies with independence as a keyword and in the plot. I think I rated it a 9/10. I vaguely remember the director was under constant controversy. I thought I remember that this wasn't filmed in India but in Bengal or somewhere else but I guess I'm misremembering that part.
They even scrubbed the production/release year from the movie's IMDb page. They also sanitized all release dates from the release date page.
