Flock of Dodos is a fascinating documentary about how and why the
creationists are winning the public relations battle.  It's a little on
the "meta" side - discussing the discussion more than the subject matter
itself. 

It is well worth seeing, and as part of a broader symposium, may be very
thought-provoking.  I wouldn't recommend it as the sole film on the
subject.

Subject: Movies about evolution?

I need to develop a list of movies for a film symposium on evolution
that will run through Darwin year (2009) and wondered if you had any
ideas for movies that present evolution in positive, and maybe even
humorous ways (such as the 2001 movie, Evolution, with David Duchovny).
The idea is to spawn discussion about the ways in which evolution is
represented and whether those representations are valid and accurate
interpretations of the theory.  And maybe, to have fun doing that!

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
