Good thing I read the entire thread. Didn't really want to get punched in the cock.
Anyway, two suggestions: Blues Brothers and Amelie. Snatch is probably too violent to not get you into trouble but that would have been my third suggestion. If you pick a Ghibli movie, I'd go with Grave of the Fireflies. Or go with Summer Wars. Can't really go wrong there.

-_- Indeed. Though you wouldn't be the first.

BB is a great movie, but can't really tie it in to studio art. Amalie is also great, but there are no notable visual artists/painters who worked on them. Ghibli is on the list, but GotF is totally out of the question. I don't want to depress the kids! I have not seen Summer Wars, so I couldn't judge if that would be good for them or not.
Dark Crystal is going over very well. Evangelion was met with resistance by one of my students at first, but then he asked me if he could have the boxed set, or if I had the old tapes lying around. Same student also said the LCL reminded him of blood, that he bet the Eva was alive, that Rei was related to Shinji's mom, and that Shinji's mom was linked to Unit 1 while WATCHING THE FIRST EPISODE. Jesus.

Are you sure you don't teach at a school for PSYCHICS??? *Kill Bill sound effect*

That kid probably has a very high sync ratio.
Either that, or its that you teach kids with the aforementioned mental/psychological and social disorders, and Eva was made by one. Maybe that kid just gets it.
Are you sure he isn't just pulling your chain and actually knows what happens in the entire series?
I kind of agree here. Having seen the show a dozen of times, there's no way he could make the connections to Shinji's mom when she's never even mentioned in episode one. The only possible way is that he is very, VERY good at decrypting the opener.
