I would say Django Unchained is the best one . It's also the sneakiest white savior movie I've ever seen because it uses a justifiable rationale for the trope and kills the white savior (although much too late, imo).

No white savior is kind of the opposite. White savior comes down from heaven and teaches a black man to live his best life. Magic negro movie has a black man with some power to help a white man live his best life. In some cases, they're one and the same like The Green Mile
Either way, they are Oscar gold; Driving Miss Daisy, The Blindside, Green Book, etc.

Keep in mind the magical negro never has sex. He is just some asexual being put in the movie for the sole purpose of inspiring a white man with their magical negro wisdom. Usually a giant neutered nikka or some old man. White savior teaches the black man, but also manages to get his nut off in one of his women.

Batman vs Superman

He literally saved a poor minority community and as he descended to them they reached out and touched him like he’s some white jesus

I'd say a flying man who can lift buildings is proof enough for me.

Finding Forrester and Cool Runnings for sure. I'm not really sure if Andy in Shawshank Redemption is a white savior, but if he is, I'd put that movie in too.

Cool Runnings wasn’t really a “white savior” movie if anything the Jamaican Bobsled team saved HIS ass.


Shawshank I wouldn’t really call white savior either as Andy didn’t really save Red at any point.

True, haven't seen it since I was a teen so I was forgetting some of the plot

But didn't the white savior die and Django win at the end regardless...

Also “the white savior” fukked everything up and it’s Django who had to ultimately save himself and his wife all on his own.
