I saw 'The History Boys' last week. Thought it was a cracking film (and being based on an Alan Bennett play it should be!) but not sure if it's your cup of tea..

It's set in Sheffield and is about a group of students who, having passed their A-Levels with high enough marks to get interviews for Oxford/Cambridge, return to school for another term to study for the entry exam/interview.

Very cleverly done (I thought the end was great, my sister thought that it was OK) and has the original stage cast so the banter and relationships between the students and teachers are very well portrayed.
