Very specific movie request: Are there any movies where someone who seems like an antagonist throughout the entire movie turns out to actually be good at the end?

The best example I can come up with is Severus Snape from the Harry Potter series. For every single movie until the end of the last movie, it seems as though he is trying to deviate Harry from succeeding and help his opposing party but he turned out to be subtly doing everything for Harry (as a promise to Harry’s mother) and the audience finds out at the very end that he was good all along. For me, the reveal of Snape being good was definitely the best part of the entire series.

Are there any other (preferably dramatic/emotional and not comedies) movies where there seems to be a bad guy who is doing bad but at the end he is good all along. If you do suggest, please don’t say the character in the movie which seems bad but is good, just say the movie title. Thank you!

BONUS: If the reveal (that the character was good the entire time) is revealed dramatically/emotionally at the end with emotional music
