Language-related popular films?

[Beth Simon]

Sorry, I should have been more expansive.

Include Red Hot Ballroom on the list of films for Language and Culture
and for Sociolinguistics. 

A picture of how thoroughly (and explicitly) multilingual (teacher -
student, teacher - administrator, student - teacher, student - student)
classroom and school related (friends in school activities, parent -
parent) interactions in public school are, at least NYC schools.
Codeswitching, language acquisition, multiple Spanishes.
