I found the websites below useful.

<http://www.teachwithmovies.org/>  This website has some great lesson plans and lists of movies.

<https://www.commonsensemedia.org/> This site is a super way of checking the content of movies before viewing.

I am sure I will add more over time, but this is the beginning of my list.
