Well, this one was pretty depressing. Silent Running is a film about what might happen if Earth no longer has any plants or wildlife left and no one cares about the fate of what little has been saved. It's a story, too, about morality and solitude. It's heavy, but there are light-hearted and hopeful moments. And droids! This film has been cited as the inspiration for many droids in Star Wars and Mystery Science Theater.
