I just got done watching SLC Punk today for the umpteenth time, and I had just rewatched American History X the other day.  It struck me that both of these movies pretty accurately depict the subcultures that they represent.  These movies happen to represent aspects that I have some personal experience with. Conversely, Higher Learning is one of the worst depictions of that scene that I've ever seen.

What movies have you seen that accurately or inaccurately depict things that you know something about?   I know we've had tons of threads about war and LE movies and how accurate or inaccurate they are, so I think we can skip those in this thread.

The pit trading scenes in Trading Places were fairly well done.
