Here's a couple off the top of my head:

Educating Rita

Dead Poets Society

My wife watched it while I was using the computer and I partly paid attention. It seemed like an interesting character study but not exceptionally dramatic. Probably not the kind of movie you'd show to students.

I've seen it. Good movie. More about Gosling struggling with drug addiction, and bordering on an inappropriate relationship with a middle school girl than it is about teaching.
Good movie. I'd give it a 7/10.
