Amistad
Lesson plans and discussion points from the film "Amistad" are covered in the book 'Reel to Real' (Vol. 2, No. 3), Augsburg, 1998, 9780687214334 (out of print) - copies may be still found on-line.
I've used other 'Reel to Real' books and would recommend them in general. Hope this helps,
Ruth
