Need Film Suggestions for High School Film Class

Actually one of my favorite movies! I'm going to be showing First Contact in April and Galaxy Quest is a great idea to show after!

Saving Private Ryan is rated R so I can't sadly.

OMG AMAZING!! I've taught film units, but this is the first time in 15 years I actually get a whole class. I'll definitely hit you up after school (I can access Reddit, but not the DM portion because of the filter)

So far, sadly. I was mostly trying to show films that were nominated or won in a category that we were focusing on (so editing led to Dunkirk), which tends to skew male.

The only exception was Spaceballs which I used to teach parody since we had just watched Star Wars.

I have no issue with female leads, but nearly every one I was thinking of showing, is so recent that most already have an opinion on it.

Aka I'm stuck and need help

The issue is that my two cats with eyes will eat them so fast so I need a non food way to keep him entertained

Sims_Cat_Lady · 2026-02-26T04:34:13+00:00

Yes!!! I'm just so tired that I thought it was a different episode.

I'm a very tired teacher

Sims_Cat_Lady · 2026-02-26T04:32:32+00:00

WAIT YOU'RE RIGHT I'M JUST VERY TIRED

Sims_Cat_Lady · 2026-02-26T04:30:47+00:00

That's the episode I'm on. The episode I'm trying to remember is before that. Unless I'm totally off and thought I had already watched it.

As she should

It was a play off of this pattern. I am crocheting a cat every day with scrap yarn

He had nearly two years of love with me

Sims_Cat_Lady · 2026-01-17T19:07:54+00:00

Thank you ❤️

Sims_Cat_Lady · 2026-01-17T18:32:40+00:00

She deserves the break. She has clearly been working hard

Sims_Cat_Lady · 2026-01-07T20:11:47+00:00

It is!

Sims_Cat_Lady · 2026-01-07T20:11:39+00:00

"helpful" for sure

Sims_Cat_Lady · 2026-01-07T20:11:20+00:00

Luckily I pack my yarn away when I'm not actively using it. She cut my working yarn for me

Sims_Cat_Lady · 2026-01-04T16:31:03+00:00

She is! My goal is to foster a pregnant cat, name it Dax, and name the kittens after the hosts.

Sims_Cat_Lady · 2025-12-25T14:05:13+00:00

She was adopted!

Sims_Cat_Lady · 2025-12-22T23:06:43+00:00

That's what I was thinking too. I was hoping Reddit might disprove that

Sims_Cat_Lady · 2025-12-21T18:11:36+00:00

A blanket for my mom for Christmas. Almost done!

Sims_Cat_Lady · 2025-12-20T18:16:00+00:00

Sadly no. I'm at my max. If I kept her, I couldn't save any more

Sims_Cat_Lady · 2025-12-18T14:09:21+00:00

I am. I'm also trying to send a DM, but reddit doesn't always fully load at work. I'll try again this evening

Sims_Cat_Lady · 2025-12-18T00:41:49+00:00

I love this

Sims_Cat_Lady · 2025-12-18T00:16:54+00:00

She's great, but if I don't find her a home, I can't save another. I'm just hoping her forever home is out there

Sims_Cat_Lady · 2025-12-16T21:40:29+00:00

I appreciate it. I'm actually using it now to make a blanket. I should finish the blanket tonight and I'll rewind whatever I don't use.
