Abstract

Several films have based their plots in themes related to the fight for freedom and justice. In this piece of work I would like to comment some of the films based on these topics, emphasizing the didactic chances to be taught in academic activities. The films I have chosen are the following: The great dictator (1940), The grapes of the wrath (1940), Inherit theWind (1960), Spartacus (1960), Companys, judgement in Catalonia (1979), Gandhi, (1983), Guilty by suspiction (1991), Beyond Rangoon, (1995), Salvador Allende (2004) and Goodbye Bafana (2007). Such films offer us an excellent didactic support to be used, always obeying the current legislation, to show the fight for freedomand justice that human beings had carried out through the centuries to live in a better world.
