Maid in Manhattan (2002)

All-American Co-Ed, a 1941 release starred Frances Langford as Virginia Collinge, one of the college gals attending Mar Brynn College. Her roommate, however, isn’t exactly who, or what, she, er, he, seems. It is all based on a crazy premise about rival schools getting their jollies at …

The Watchmen (2009, Zack Snyder) film
You probably know the tag-line “Who is watching the watchmen?” and should add yourself to the list of people doing just that.
