Students! It is a great idea to watch one or more of these movies, preferably each film two or more times, so that you become familiar enough with the story that you can pay attention to the language. Use a subtitled version if there is one available. DVD delivery services may carry some of these titles if your school library doesn't own them. Sites for ordering films are given at the end of the list.
YouTube also carries clips from many of these films,  though most clips don't have subtitles, and the quality of sound and picture is far better on a DVD recording.
