Hackers (1995)

Not joking, it's a silly and campy movie but it captures the enthusiasm I had as a kid for making computers do things.

Not about coding, but about achieving something through persistence and hard work: Fitzcarraldo (1982)

In-drama and out-drama?

> When shooting was nearly complete, the chief of the Machiguenga tribe, who were used extensively as extras, asked Herzog if they should kill Kinski for him

If you liked Fitzcarraldo, you should absolutely watch "Burden of Dreams" which is basically the making of Fitzcarraldo. It's fascinating.
