Added DiffLines:

* Lily from ''Film/BlackSwan'' is promiscuous and does drugs, but she's the most stable character in the film, and notes none of the other characters should be acting the way they do. Nina is a mentally unstable perfectionist, obsessed with becoming both the White and Black Swans. Erica is her StageMom but also a MoodSwinger who loses her temper every time Nina tries to break her control. Thomas is a PrimaDonnaDirector who, when not being creepy towards the dancers, often goes into hyper critical tirades about their work. Beth is the former prima, who [[spoiler: attempts suicide after being forced into retirement, and is even more mentally unstable than Nina is.]]

* ''Film/{{Downfall}}'': Albert Speer is one of the few people who realizes the war is lost and refuses to carry out Hitler's order, and forgoes suicide, believing Germany can still have a future. In RealLife, he was indeed considered to be one of the most grounded Nazi leaders, successfully covering up the fact that he oversaw a vast slave system for decades. He did so while cynically portraying himself as unaware of the scope of Nazi crimes, and played the part of the repentant fascist. In doing so, he allowed many other ex-Nazis to excuse their own behavior. After all, if someone as high-ranking as Speer could have no idea about what Hitler was doing, surely many former Nazis weren't aware of the full truth either?

** Qui-Gon Jinn is the only Jedi by the time of ''Film/ThePhantomMenace'' to realize that the Jedi have lost their way, and he considers himself the best option to train Anakin Skywalker because of it, deferring that duty to Obi-Wan should anything happen to him. He was right--[[ForWantOfANail if he hadn't died in a Naboo power plant, the fate of the galaxy over the ensuing years might have been a lot different.]]
