Fortunately, there are indeed a good number of films, some quite educational,
dealing with the history of Computer Science.

UNfortunately, they are all (at least that I know of) put out by major computer
oriented corporations, and so tend to be extremely slanted.  After all, would
IBM tell how bad a kludge its 360 was on film?
