Liz, Great recommendations, and excellent topic idea.
The Prestige is the movie that got me interested in these topics and led me to this list. Also, for US viewers, Chronochrimes goes by "Timecrimes" and is available under netflix under that title. I found it to be the first realistic portrayal of single-universe time travel in any movie I have seen. Somewhat off-topic being a TV series, but the recently reimagined "Battlestar Galactica" probes many of the questions of machine vs. human consciousness. I recommend it to Craig.
