Inside Out (2015)
Possibly the greatest film ever made
A big claim, yes. But for me, personally, I'm not sure I can fault this movie, or think of any better.
I am 50, and have suffered from depression for as long as I can remember. Over the years I have tried all sorts of treatments, and read a lot about the condition, including actually studying clinical psychology, in my quest to better understand the demons that plagued me.
Never have I come across a better depiction or description of the depressive condition as I have experienced it, than is contained in this film. It explains the darkness in a light way that enables me to see the truths it contains without the feeling of horror that I usually feel when encountering any such depiction in fiction, and has a message that is not only hopeful but practical.
I cannot recommend it too highly for anyone with similar problems, or for people who know depressives and want a bit of insight. It is no exaggeration to say that this film has changed, possibly saved, my life.
I'm not sure if it's really for kids, though.
