Not about BBSs, but possibly also of interest from a
nostalgia/history perspective:

Hackers - Wizards of the Electronic Age
 http://www.handtap.com/hackers/
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hackers:_Wizards_of_the_Electronic_Age

Downloads (though DVDs are on Amazon, linked from the official
website above)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zOP1LNr70aU
http://archive.org/details/Hackers_201808

And while trying various URLs attempting to find the official
website from memory, I sumbled upon this bit of fun:
http://www.hackersmovie.com/
