Pity, I didn't do any of those films, but I have seen most of them, bar stomp the yard and run lola run. So any questions regarding narrative/production elements in those films feel free to ask.

I'm surprised you are doing three texts for social values! We only did one text, an old 50s US film, which was more than adequete to study. In a modern film like Crash it'll be quite hard to ascertain the underlying social values (though the whole film is one big moral statement).

There is no 'list' of films to be chosen, the study design states that is up to the individual teacher. Any film can be chosen, which is why you end up with classes studying 'Stomp the Yard' :P

Psycho and Rear Window. I think they're good movies to study, well known, and not too hard to analyse..

there is none it's the teachers choice.

I did road to perdition and Unleashed (aka Danny the Dog) for narrative and the lion king for SV

Road to perdition is the best film to study, as far as production elements are concerned, at least imo.

for social values - boyz n the hood

We did Phonebooth and Vantage point. Im really bad at analysing films, my teacher literly told us nothing it was all self learnt, thats why most of my class knows nothing because they didnt take the time to teach themselves. Gonna be so hard >_>

For SV we did two and a half men and something else, but I'm only gonna focus on two and a half men

I got Shawshank Redemption and Shine for narrative, and Guess Who's Coming to Dinner for social values. Excellent choices by the media staff at my school I reckon, really good to analyse them.
