patton, incredible story/acting by george c scott

but if you need research for less hollywood, but a true story, and ya got a strong ability to watch movies, with true nature that it breaks your heart then has a great ending

the killing fields, about a reporter for a major new york newspaper and his cambodian assistant who doesnt get to evacuate with his boss, and the kamir rouge are taking the govment

Kramer vs Kramer
Tootsie

Ghandi

JFK, Stalin, the original Pearl Harbor....

The last King of Scotland. Forrest Whitaker is brilliant. He portrays Idi Amin beautifully.

All of the made-for-TV movies based on John Jake's books, The Kent Family Chronicles; The Bastard, The Rebel, The Titans, The Furies, etc.
These books are an excellent source of American History.
Jake's trilogy, North and South, Love and War and Heaven and Hell, covers the Civil War, were also, made-for-TV movies .
His mastery of utilizing historical figures, in conjunction with fictional characters, makes reading/watching real-life events more interesting than the doldrums of impersonal school books.

"The Killing Fields" and "Schindlers List".
