Every movie and web series, whether they are comedies, dramas, superheroes, or horror flicks, can teach us something.

1. The Bucket List - Amazon Prime Video, Google Play Movies, Apple TV, YouTube

Two elderly, terminally ill men — car mechanic Carter Chambers (Morgan Freeman) and wealthy Edward Cole — are the focus of this action-comedy (Jack Nicholson). The two individuals meet while receiving treatment at a hospital and become friends after connecting over shared interests. The two create a list of enjoyable endeavors they wish to complete before departing from the mortal realm. Carter leaves with Edward to carry out his intentions after persuading his family. This moving story demonstrates how unpredictable life is and urges us to live a bit for ourselves before it's too late. The film also demonstrates how even the most unlikely relationships can aid in our healing; all one needs to do is maintain an open mind and heart. You'll cry a lot watching the movie, so bring tissues.

2. The Intern - Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, Google Play Movies, Apple TV and YouTube

The movie, which features Robert De Niro and Anne Hathaway in key parts, provides some essential insights regarding interpersonal relationships and leadership. The film centres on 70-year-old widower Ben Whittaker, who applies for a senior internship programme at Jules Ostin's workaholic fashion e-commerce business. Jules is initially reserved, but after a while she opens up to Ben and develops an odd friendship. As the story develops, Ben is shown to be a sounding board for the young CEO who is having trouble balancing work and personal obligations. You're never too old to try anything new, which is one of the major life lessons the film imparts. Ben demonstrates that our advancing years should not prevent us from pursuing our interests. Even though change is inevitable and we must innovate to stay up, this does not mean we must give in to social pressure. Ben never modifies his ideals or the way he dresses (he still prefers to wear suits despite the casual work environment). Jules exemplifies what a boss lady should be as she takes on every challenge, including taunting from other mothers at her daughter's school.
