It's pretty safe to assume that not a day goes by that Kobe Bryant's family doesn't think of the late Los Angeles Lakers icon. When he retired from the NBA in 2016, Kobe dedicated his life to his family, most especially to his and Vanessa's four daughters.

The eldest of their lovely children, Natalia Bryant, recently opened up on how Kobe inspired her love for films. She said she wants to have a career in movies, particularly behind the cameras, when she graduates from college. She is currently a freshman at the University of Southern California, which she previously described as her dream school.

The 18-year-old Natalia said she used to have movie marathons with Kobe, which gradually grew her interest in the film industry (via Lakers Daily).

“So my dad and I would always watch as many movies as we can and we’d go on movie marathons. And then we’d also analyze as many movies as we can, and we’d talk about it for months. Where we’d go, we’d just keep talking about different films and how it reminds us of where we are. ‘Oh my gosh, that architecture reminds me of this piece from this film.’ So just things like that, it just really inspired me and I was like, ‘I want to do this forever.’”

Kobe has inspired countless athletes, including LeBron James, Kyrie Irving, Jayson Tatum, Sabrina Ionescu, and Naomi Osaka just to name a few. But more importantly, he's made a lasting impact on the lives of Natalia, Gigi, who was with him during the tragic helicopter crash, Bianka, and Capri.

Maybe soon enough, Natalia will get his own Oscar trophy as well, and it would be Kobe Bryant's turn to get emotional.
