Another good, somewhat obscure, aussie film: Flirting http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0101898/ First film of Nicole Kidman and Thandie Newton. Interesting youthful take on transcending social roles and expectations. Also, not related, but should be on the list; Prince of the City http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0082945/ and Serpico, two great Sydney Lumet films, which deal in their own ways with deep disillusionment and transcending initial mindsets. Rounds out the othe Lumet film already mentioned: The Verdict. Going a bit deeper on Lumet: 12 Angery Men -- subjectivness of "reality" theme, in that way, similar to Mamet's Oleanna. Another Lumet classic, Network, seems a natural, breaking boundaries, "I'm not going to take it any more", though perhaps having become bit a cliche film -- that is -- it is on all lists. A smaller Lumet film, Failsafe (and its book), dealing with huge and imponderable decisions, forces a level of transcendence. Another Burdick novel made into a film, Seven Days in May, should be considered, though the reasoning for making its case as a "spiritual" film -- may take a bit to develop. Othe Lumet films for consideration: the Hill, Dog Day Afternoon http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001486/ plus a number I have not seen, but I am sure are worth viewing. ------------------------ Yahoo!
