You cannot utter words except 1 DVD Title...which one describes your life?

Time to get a little introspective. I got inspired or sentimental (whatever) but besides relating to a movie I thought this was different because I am talking about the entire DVD: The movie and/or the commentary and/or extras.

Something in one or all of those features hits many nerves and if you were rendered powerless to utter words except 1 DVD Title that had to describe your life...past, present or lifetime overall..which DVD would describe your life??

You don't have to explain..just a title is sufficient. Also, I would like to try and keep it realistic! A little get to know without really...

(Tie) 1. "School of Rock"...I am becoming a teacher and student teaching now in a middle school and everything about Jack Black and his exuberance and slowly acquired love for teaching and children is something to smile at. Fun and learning is so powerful. Linklater and Black's commentary also expresses such verve and vibrance for the actors/children in the film that it makes everything worth it for them

(Tie) 1. "Donnie Darko"

Office Space My disdain at the state of my life and my job made me stop caring about work. First chance I got I became a royal pain in the ass and I quit (with the help of my wife's promotion) to go into something that I had enthusiasm for. I quit my office job in front of a computer and machinery in order to go back to school to get into the medical industry. The company I worked for will be closing down shortly. Best thing I've done in my life IMHO.
