"A movie that sticks out in my mind as a human who represents a lot of God's loving qualities is the protagonist in the movie 'Powder'.

I feel that his character inspires humanity to be better and more loving. It also triggers the feeling of being alone, unwanted, unpopular by being yourself."

Title: Les Misérables (2012)

IMDB: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1707386/?ref_=nv_sr_1

"There are errors in the film about God's nature but the characters of Valjean and Javert present two opposing "versions" of God. Valjean is shown a compassionate, loving, merciful and forgiving God who inspires him to live a more loving life. He is transformed from a hard, bitter criminal to a sensitive, softer man who is capable of love and compassion. This is contrasted with Javert's belief in a harsh, punishing, judgmental God who demands justice and punishment."
