Also, does anyone know of a short movie clip I could show to my class to illustrate some sort of betrayal? It would have to be ok to show in a public school.

Examples:
When Marcus Brutus betrayed Julius Caesar in Rome on the Ides of March, 44 BC..
The attempted betrayal of Henry V by the Earl of Cambridge at Southampton.
The betrayal of the new United States of America by Benedict Arnold in 1780.
The betrayal of Britain by Kim Philby in 1963.
In Milton's Paradise Lost, the betrayal of God by Satan.
And, of course, in the Bible, the betrayal of Jesus by Judas Iscariot either late in the evening on Holy Thursday or early in the morning on Good Friday.

Judas and Brutus—there is a third who joins them in Dante's inner circle of Hell, but I can't recall him at the moment.
Just looked him up. It was Cassius thrown in there with Brutus about that Caesar thing.
