I've got my own list, but I don't have children, so I'm not qualified. What DVDs have you bought, or plan to buy, because your kids need to know what they can teach?

To Kill A Mockingbird (racism, integrity)
Roots (slavery)
The Longest Day (D-Day Invasion - WW2)
Diary of Anne Frank (Holocaust)
First Born (drugs, drinking)
These are a few of my favorites that would teach children something.

I bought Inglourious Basterds about a week ago at Wal-Mart, and Master and Commander with Good Will Hunting to help start my collection last time I went to Best Buy. I'm not so sure how far I'm going to get on a collection because I have other things to spend money on, but we'll see. 1: ^^ 2: I don't have any plans 3. Probably not that you haven't seen, at least not at the top of my head. BQ: Saw Safe House a week ago and it seemed cool, but I was a little drunk so my opinion might have been off a little. Anything with Denzel is usually pretty cool. BQ2: 1. Moonrise Kingdom 2. Prometheus 3. Django Untamed 4. Lincoln 5. The Dark Knight Rises 6. Inside Llewyn Davis 7. The Hobbit 8. Skyfall 9. Cogan's Trade 10. The Silver Linings Playbook BQ3: I watched The Fountain a month or two ago. BQ4: Not recently. BQ5: Hype hype hype hype hype...It'd be interesting if he turns out to be legit in the long run though.

The Great Race
The Quiet Man
A Night at the Opera

There are others but these are the ones I could watch over and over again.

The Wizard of OZ, The Learning Tree, The Rosa Parks Story, The Life Of Dr. Martin Luther King, Roots, Bed knobs and Broomsticks, The Sound Of Music. Some of these are for just clean family time and others are to teach your children what people of integrity had to endure in order to change history.

Being from britain i felt it important that my sons see"Schindlers List". What with the connection it has with WWII.
There has been others but this is the one they actually wrote about in thier work at school. Which says it all really.
They also enjoyed seeing the really old King Kong and have watched it a few times.
Though that might be so they can get a laugh at me crying at the end of it, wee horrors...ha!!!
