Aside from a few odd choices (What Women Want), Businesspundit has a good list of the 50 Best Business Movies Ever. Perhaps it was too recent to be up for consideration, but I would add to this list the summer's best movie so far, Iron Man—a brilliant portrayal of one entrepreneur and the entrepreneurial spirit.

Young Go Getter has a Q&A with Jake Nickell, the founder of one of the more successful online start-ups in recent memory, Threadless.com.

The Wall Street Journal's Independent Street has a guide for how a business owner should shop for health insurance.

Iron Man

I second your nomination Matt. It's my all-time favorite movie thus far this year. Downey deserves an Oscar for his performance.
