    Is the line having explicitly socialist characters or not?

    Movies with left-ish themes:

    • Parasite
    • Us
    • Get Out
    • Mad Max: Fury Road
    • Snowpiercer
    • Network
    • The Grapes of Wrath
    • Paths of Glory
    • It's a Wonderful Life
    • There Will Be Blood
    • Do The Right Thing
    • Fruitvale Station
    • If Beale Street Could Talk
    • The Thin Blue Line
    • High Noon
    • All That Heaven Allows / Ali: Fear Eats The Soul
    • I, Daniel Blake
    • Hell or High Water
    • Two Days, One Night
    • La Haine
    • Bicycle Thieves
    • Cache
    • The Conformist
    • Pretty much any Bunuel film: The Exterminating Angel, The Discrete Charm of the Bourgeoisie, Viridiana, Los Olvidados
    • Modern Times
    • The Great Dictator

    Movies about socialists / communists/ civil wars but still maybe a little sneaky for people

    • The Act of Killing / The Look of Silence
    • The Battle of Algiers
    • The Motorcycle Diaries
    • Z
    • Hunger
    • Malcolm X

    I find lots of movies can be interpreted through a leftist lens, really. Harakiri is a samurai film, but it's also about the dangers of uncompromising traditionalism and authority, which I think could fall under a leftist theme.
