Films

I want to incorporate films into my curriculum, but not being a movie buff I do not have good ideas. Help!


1) What films could I use for government/civics class? Any level of government would be fine. I'm looking for anything that can legally be shown to high schoolers and does a good job of highlighting the role of government in daily lives, foreign affairs, the economy, law enforcement, etc. The list is long!

2) What films could I use for psychology? "A Beautiful Mind" has been mentioned to me, but what else? I'm sure there are MANY, but I don't know what they are. If you know a film that you think is great and could be the centerpiece of a unit, let me know!
