A good film examining pre-history is Quest for Fire.  We don't have time to show it in the program, but it's well done in terms of what was known about Cro-Magnons in the 1980s.

Pygmalion  is a film about a phonetician who claims he can change a flower girl's dialect into a completely different one.  We watched a few minutes of the film in class Monday, Oct. 22, and we encourage you to watch the entire film.  It is in our library at the college.
