Not familiar with this one, and there are an awful lot of IMDB listings for "Charlie." I'm sure it's a good one, but which Charlie are you talking about?
I assume he means Charly (1968), the film adaptation of Flowers for Algeron. If he meant another movie, than I'll add Charly (1968). (Full disclosure: the year came from research, but the title was in my head originally).

Fantasia. (First feature-length film with Mickey Mouse I could think of, but I'm sure there are many more)
The Departed? Not a big role, but it is the final image of the movie.

Of Mice and Men ("Tell me about the rabbits, George.")
Flirting With Disaster (How convenient. I happened to watch this last night.... there's a segment that centers on a rabbit figurine.)

Charly, sure. That should have been obvious to me. Thx.

The rat in The Departed is a sledgehammer-to-the-head type of symbolism. I think it's a magnificent film, and I'm glad that Scorsese finally got his Oscar for this, and especially not for The Aviator, which I thought was pure drivel. But I don't like the rat ending, too over the top and totally unnecessary.

Yeah, but at some point you've got to draw a line, and I loooooove dancing around it. How about...

Titanic! (If this is the way the rats are going, it's good enough for me!)

Yeah, ya wanna make somethin' of it?

To be precise, sequels are included.... just lumping them in with the original when coming up with the unique count.

Yes, something like Titanic did come to mind when I formulated the question and conditions. Don't recall the movie too well, but I figured that there would be rats on board, which would likely appear in some form at some point. (Is Anchors Aweigh in the same category?) There have probably been hundreds of movies where rats or other vermin have been seen briefly just scurrying around. The intent was to not include those, but we're not keeping score, so it isn't all that important where the line is drawn.

Well, they were used as a plot mover (and quippy one liner) in Titanic; couldn't have the line without the rats.

As far as Anchors Aweigh...
