3. “Deliverance”, 1972 – The rape scene is something you’ll want to forget
4. “Schindler’s List”, 1993 – Steven Spielberg’s Holocaust film is deeply moving and won seven Oscars.
5. “American History X”, 1998 – The curb stomping scene that is a tough watch.
6. “Hotel Rwanda”, 2004 – The horrors of genocide are depicted.
7. “127 Hours”, 2010 – James Franco cutting his arm off is, yikes.
