Can I leagally show this movie?

Question by Matt S: Can I leagally show this movie?
I am an RA on campus and I would like to show on November 5th, the movie “V for Vendetta” to my residents. I want my program to consist of an educational discussion about the 1605 Gunpowder Plot, leading into a discussion about government and the citizens role in policy, decision making, and “overthrowing” a government. This of course followed by me presenting the movie “V for Vendetta” to the residents who attended.

I am aware of the Fair Use guidelines but I am not sure if I actually meet them or not.
1) Purpose and Character of the Use: This is both nonprofit and educational.
2) The Nature of the Copyrighted Work: It is a movie. However it is not purely factual and scientific.
3) Amount and Substantially of the Portion Used: I plan to show the full length of the movie; highlighting cause and effect patterns, movement from compliance to anger of the government, historical facts listed within the movie, etc.
4) Effect on the Potential Market for or Value of the Work: None what so ever. The students who will be attending my program will be viewing a movie which is not currently playing in theaters, and which has been on T.V. multiple times. If anything it may encourage people who enjoy the movie to go out and buy a copy.

What do you guys think?

It’s been on TV and your not going to charge. If your showing it on school grounds you have to ask the school.
