The Sound of Music

There are five all time great songs in this movie and to top it off the whole movie is about the anti-creative nature of nationalism. Subversion the kids can watch!

Agreed with "Sound of Music" but must quibble with "nationalism" point. Movie was extremely pro-nationalism (pro-Austrian). The Captain was motivated by a deeply conservative, nationalist nostalgia for old Austria, and his sense of "creativity" was to embrace the classic Austrian cultural touchstones, like the waltz and "Eddelweis". But with that said, movie lauded creativity as a portal to joyfulness, community and love. Those Austrians who embraced Nazism were condemned, not because Nazism was portrayed negatively, but because it sought to negate Austrian nationalism. The villains were those Austrians who lacked the Captain's romantic love for old Austria.
