Answer 2

If you are into older movies, try "Inherit the Wind." It is a masterpiece directed by Stanley Kubrick. The movie tells the true story of the "monkey" trial. A teacher in a small, religious town is arrested because he refuses to stop teaching evolution. A big city newspaper hires a famous lawyer to defend him. Althought the man is on trial, sometimes the trial better reflects science versus religion. At times, the movie shows that both beliefs can be accepted or at least respected simultaneously. At other times, it shows the narrow beliefs held by many of the townspeople who do not accept anyone's beliefs but their own.

It is certainly thought provoking. Every scene and moment and dialog in the story is executed flawlessly. Kubrick is perfect in his direction.

I am not sure how you define "entertaining" as it might relate to this movie. It is intense and serious but thankfully with a few light-hearted moments.
