Movies to Watch as a Screenwriter?

Question:

Hey all! I'm looking for movies/TV shows that are a must see for those (myself) interested in being a scriptwriter. What would you recommend? (I'd prefer they be kept PG-13 material and down, but I'll understand if they aren't!)

Answer:

Here is a list of well written movies. http://www.wga.org/subpage_newsevents.aspx?id=1807

Some are R which is too bad because some of those are great (ETERNAL SUNSHINE OF THE SPOTLESS MIND, AMADEUS, SHAKESPEARE IN LOVE, DO THE RIGHT THING, and MEMENTO) but of the PG movies, these would be my picks:

GROUNDHOG DAY GONE WITH THE WIND TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD THE WIZARD OF OZ BACK TO THE FUTURE ROCKY I and II THE PRINCESS BRIDE FORREST GUMP
