I'm a business English teacher in Korea. Preferably, give me something more than Glengarry Glen Ross and Wall Street -- are there any movies out there where all the business people AREN'T total @$$holes, where my Korean company workers can watch business men work/deal together and talk to each other WITHOUT the situation forcing them to throw all their manners out the window?

"office space"

Office Space is pretty much it. Business offices tend to be the same. The business demands that you produce "work" the entire time, regardless of what is necessary. They will even make up things, like "shred this entire room full of paper with a two page at a time shredder." Bosses don't care if you have a life away from work, you develop friendships based on how much you hate your job and the only job satisfaction you may genuinely have comes from playing with a shiny red stapler. Large American corporations really are depressing.

I tend to agree with the second answerer... movies are interesting because of the conflict; therefore you are unlikely to find a movie that doesn't involve conflict. Perhaps a telecourse would be more helpful?
