I only saw the first one *hides*. I wonder if you have seen 'Matilda'.

Interesting lists, TY

I was thinking about morality in movies recently, the kind that isn't to do with raising direct issues.

I found these movies very engaging, they seem to depict general truths about interaction between good and evil:

A Man for All Seasons
Strictly Ballroom
Cruel Intentions

Anyone agree?

Whereas

Election

tries very hard to do this kind of metamoralizing and fails
