I have thought a lot about your question (in fact it took me a lot to answer you, I'm sorry cutie 🙈) and I'm gonna tell you a book and two movies that left me a mark 👉🏻👈🏻
Okay, soooo:
Uno, Nessuno e Centomila (which could be translated like One, No One and One Hundred Thousand) by Luigi Pirandello. It's one of those books that every Italian teacher makes you read at least once in your lifetime, in fact I had to read it and do an essay on it during middle school and it was also one of the topics of my italian literature exam at university; nevertheless I've really enjoyed reading it and I've read it again and again and it's one of my favourite books now. First of all, I love the author and his way of thinking. Second of all, this book makes you think A LOT about yourself and the people who surround you. It makes you think about the fact that everyone has a different perspective on you which is different even from your own perspective on you. You look at yourself in the mirror and see yourself in some way, but that way is not the same way your mother sees you and it's not the same your best friend sees you, but even their way of seeing you is different from one another and so on. Well, it's a little bit more complex the whole concept of the book, but anyway it completely blew my mind.
Prayers for Bobby. I watched it with my cousin when I was 14/15 and it was the first lgbt+ movie I've ever watched, it made me cry so hard that I had red eyes at the end of the movie and I WAS EMBARRASSED AF because I hate crying in front of people and also because my cousin barely cried so you know I wanted to disappear. Anyway at that time I still had no idea about my sexuality. I never even thought about it tbh, so I genuinely thought that it hit me so hard just because I'm sensitive (ofc now I know it wasn't just for that lol). So yeah, this movie really left me a mark.
Soul. I've watched it on January 1rst and God, it's been more than a month since then and I still think a lot about it and its meaning. You know, 2020 is been pretty hard for everyone... I personally had a lot of breakdowns about university, my life and my future so after an year like that, watching a movie like Soul was everything I needed. It made me think a lot about life in general and the beauty of being alive. It kinda calmed my soul. I'm genuinely thinking about watching it once every month or once every year just to remind myself about it lol
