I had to rewatch Warrior again after this. What an incredible film. I cried. I felt amazing. Afterwards I tried to rank it, Rocky, and Undisputed III: Redemption and just couldn't do it

Yes, that is a great apropos song by The National, so after listening to some of their other stuff, not a lot of variety there.
