There is no film that tells the life of Nietzsche, but there are many films that are influenced by Nietzsche's philosophy . These films, while offering glimpses of Nietzsche's life, are not entirely based on facts. These films are fictional films that interpret, criticize or adapt Nietzsche's philosophy. Therefore I recommend reading corresponded book before watching the movie in this order:

  1. When Nietzsche Wept& When Nietzsche Wept
  2. Broken Flowers& Thus Spoke Zarathustra (Also sprach Zarathustra)
  3. Rope& On the Genealogy of Morality (Zur Genealogie der Moral)
  4. The Fountain& Beyond Good and Evil (Jenseits von Gut und Böse)
  5. Triumph of the Will& The Will to Power (Der Wille zur Macht)
  • When Nietzsche Wept (2007): Adapted from Irvin D. Yalom's novel of the same name, this film tells the story of Nietzsche's mental breakdowns, his relationship with Dr. Josef Breuer who tries to help him, and his love for Lou Salome .
  • Broken Flowers (2005): Directed by Jim Jarmusch, this film tells the story of a successful lawyer who receives a letter from an ex-girlfriend that he actually has a son. The film refers to Nietzsche's concepts such as "Übermensch" and "Last man" .
  • Rope (1948): Directed by Alfred Hitchcock, this film tells the story of two university students who kill a friend influenced by Nietzsche's philosophy that "inferior people have no right to live" .
  • The Fountain (2006): Directed by Darren Aronofsky, this is a science fiction film that tells the story of the quest for immortality in three different time periods. The film refers to Nietzsche's concepts such as "Amor fati" (love of fate) and "eternal recurrence" .
  • Triumph of the Will (1935): Directed by Leni Riefenstahl, this film documents the Nazi Party's 1934 Nuremberg congress as a propaganda film. The film refers to Nietzsche's concepts such as "Will to power" and "God is dead" .

Films that are structured into chapters are a storytelling technique that allows for a non-linear narrative or the division of a longer story into smaller, more manageable parts. In these films, each chapter is a distinct segment or scene that serves to advance the plot or to provide different perspectives or flashbacks. This structure can create a sense of unpredictability and keep the audience engaged, as they are constantly presented with new information and twists in the story. Examples of films that are divided into chapters include "Pulp Fiction" (1994), "The Killer" (1989), and "Interstellar" (2014). The use of chapters in films allows filmmakers to be more experimental and inventive in their storytelling, and to create unique and memorable movie experiences.

New millennium, new technology. Film cameras were the standard way to shoot a movie for over a century, and now they to had to make space for upstart digital. Without digital cameras, zombies would’ve stayed dead; 28 Days Later was only possible with how quick and easy it is to set up with them. Sofia Coppola (Lost in Translation) and Neill Blomkamp (District 9) certainly benefited from the new technology.

Movies were also used to absorb our collective trauma. We escaped into magic and wonder in the months after 9/11 with Harry Potter and The Lord of the Rings, while we celebrated the end of the Great Recession by getting the hell off this planet with Avatar. And speaking of those series, we didn’t want their installments taking up all the spots on this list, so one movie representing the whole franchise was chosen for those worthy.

And your vast comic-book trivia knowledge became a social asset, not a bullseye for beatings. Iron Man, The Dark Knight, and Spider-Man 2 opened up new ways of connected storytelling (and money making). And it wasn’t just superheroes making the leap to the mainstream. Fanboy culture, the internet, and sites like the one you’re reading now helped bring “genre” movies to the cultural forefront: zombies (28 Days Later, Shaun of the Dead), sci-fi (Avatar, Serenity), horror (The Descent, Saw), and fantasy (Pan’s Labyrinth).

Meanwhile, under-served voices started to make some noise in the mainstream with films led by females (Mean Girls, Whale Rider, Bend It Like Beckham, Twilight), made African-American filmmakers (Love & Basketball, Barbershop), and featuring Asian-American stars (Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle, Better Luck Tomorrow). And that’s not including the increasingly easy access to international material like City of God and Let the Right One In.

And we still haven’t touched upon Pixar’s golden age (WALL-E, Finding Nemo), Hollywood finding the formula for comedies perfectly balanced between smart and dumb (The Hangover, The 40-Year Old Virgin), or that the Fast & Furious series got its humble beginnings here. A lot happened in this decade: Discover it all with the 140 Essential Movies of the 2000s!

The 21st Century's Most Acclaimed Films list serves as a companion to the They Shoot Pictures, Don't They? 1,000 Greatest Films of all time list which, - by its nature - tends to have very few films from the 21st century in it. The 21st Century's Most Acclaimed Films list attempts to highlight and honour this century's most critically revered films and act as a sort of 'resting bay' for many great films that are likely to be included in the 1,000 Greatest Films list sooner or later.

From the earliest days of American cinema, the road movie has been synonymous with American culture and the image America has presented both to itself and the world. But the road movie is not uniquely American, and other national cinemas have offered their own take, adapting it to reflect their own sensibilities and geographies. Whatever its nationality, the road movie has presented a means by which to challenge and confront convention, remaining an ever-changing, fascinating metaphor for life.

Beginning with an expansive essay tracing its historical development, "100 Road Movies" provides a comprehensive guide to the development of what is perhaps one of the most enduring, popular, and reflexive of sub-genres.
