As a teacher and parent I am saddened by how many great films are missed by today’s teens. As such I have felt compelled to compile a list of Must Sees; this list includes films I loved as a teenager, films that have heart, might teach something, might be great art, or simply great fun. But above all they are films of quality. Some are terribly outdated, some still live on and are relevant. Pick and choose, these are fantastic choices to watch again this time with the kids and popcorn.
