32. The Postman

Starring Kevin Costner. In a post-apocalyptic American, the survivors become tribal living in their fortified towns against a warlord. Costner's character found a dead postal carrier and put on his uniform and when he arrived at a town everyone thought he was a postman and that the nation was being brought back. He establishes a pony express-style mail system which draws the attention of the warlord.

The movie got panned but, IMO, it was interesting seeing what it would take to bring tribes of people together.
