The expression "1 picture is worth 1000 words" for young people makes a lot of sense. Even more so nowadays with several services of streaming, channels, platforms and visual content. However, if we spend a lot of time “marathoning” sets, why can't we invest our day in gaining knowledge through this type of entertainment.?
Thinking about the various possibilities mentioned, we decided to share some movie suggestions that focus on entrepreneurs. In this way, we believe that it is possible to acquire knowledge, understand some behaviors, learn with existing companies and realize the difficulties that every entrepreneur faces when starting their journey.

6 movie tips on entrepreneurship
1. the man who changed the game
This film features stars like Brad Pitt and Robin Wright and a inspirational story that won over audiences and critics. The feature was nominated for six Oscars, including Best Picture. Inspired by the true story of Billy Beane who in 2002 captured the spotlight around the world by transforming the tiny Oakland baseball team Athletics in a hurricane in the American League, even with the lowest payroll of all teams professionals.
The film intends to show which were the techniques adopted that led the team to success – and they weren't, only sports techniques – aided by Peter Brand (played by Jonah Hill), Billy Beane leaves aside the predictions of veteran scouts and bets on statistics.
Do not stop now... There's more after the advertising ;)
2. The big bet
Adapted from the book The big short: inside the doomsday machine, the film The big bet (2016) is about the sequence of events that led the United States to real estate crisis and the subsequent implosion of the global economy in 2008. It portrays how some people have managed to discover, each in their own way, that mortgage-linked securities offered by the big banks were not as secure as previously thought.
The feature film may seem complicated for those who are unfamiliar with the subject and even far from the small investor, but it has message to all investors, from the biggest to those who have not yet started to invest their money.

3. hunger for power
The film hunger for power (2016) is a true entrepreneurship class focused on Ray Kroc (played by Academy Award-nominated actor Michael Keaton), an ambitious man who became the McDonald's Restaurant Franchise Founder.
The story takes place in the U.S in the 1950s, when Kroc met the brothers Mac and Dick McDonald and the system speedee: the cooks are unnecessary, as each employee had only one task, streamlining the process in a way practically identical to the assembly lines of the fordism. And the feature goes even further, showing the essence of a successful product: an idea is only brilliant when it balances what is technically feasible to produce with the market's need, along with what the person loves to do.
4. the intern
This movie is a career lesson! Ben Whitaker is a 70-year-old retired man who starts a project as an intern at a large company. The company's president, Jules Ostin, is a workaholic assumed, which begins to change her way of thinking and acting thanks to the teachings that this intern began to teach her.
listen to the most experienced it makes all the difference and I believe that this is what you will take as a lesson when watching this movie. Having a mentor not only in business, but also in your life, will help you to take off even more in your company.
5. Joy: the name of success
Joy is a brilliant young woman, but her personal life is extremely complicated. Divorced and mother of two, she lives with her parents and ex-husband, who lives in the basement. Her mother, who lives upstairs and spends all day watching soap operas, shares the space with her father, despite having been divorced 17 years ago.
Creative since childhood, Joy invents a miraculous cleaning mop that turns into a sales phenomenon and makes her one of the most successful entrepreneurs in the United States.

6. Walt before Mickey
Much more than just a children's channel or show, Walt Disney has become a world impact empire. In Walt before Mickey, we see how the most famous mouse on television was created and how he became the face of the brand. However, nothing was overnight. Walt was very creative and dreamy since he was a child., but was often reprimanded by his parents, who found the drawings a great waste of time.
This feature film is one of the films for entrepreneurs that inspire us to believe in our capabilities, ideals and talents, even if people close to us don't.
