Have you watched Inside Out (just came out a couple of months ago?)
It's for kids, but super-deep and I loved it

Edited: I just realized it's probably not available on YouTube - but you can add it to your list for later

What's not good abt that movie is that it's fiction - so we feel bad for the Nazi family stam... If there really was such a boy it would be different.

I suggest
Rainman (u have to skip one short scene), The music box, Holes

The recent cartoon, "inside out" was squeaky clean but brilliant, funny, emotional, and very insightful for mothers! It's a must see

Sir Patrick Stewart was in a BBC Macbeth in 2010, it's set a bit more contemporary, but is very true to the play. ( https://vimeo.com/93526504 )

There's also apparently a new Macbeth in theaters.

Temple Grandin all the way.

I see a poster suggested Fly Away Home-Is that based on the children's book by Eve Bunting?

The Shawshank Redemption
The Killing Fields- favorite !

Shawshank has lots of cursing and violence. I don't know how "clean" a movie OP wants

Thank you, going to check this out.

ETA wish I could find the one we watched in high school....I rather preferred the traditional version. Will continue looking, thanks though.

The Ellen Show. You'll find short clips on YouTube. I like those for when my concentration is shot and I need a mood booster.
