oooh movies are tough. here is how i sited mine a bit ago, but it may not be totally accurate (i looked at a few sites and they gave me different methods so i kinda combined):

Biography: Peter the Great – The Tyrant Reformer. Dir. 1996. Videocassette. A&E Home Video, 2000.

and

The Learning Channel: Conquerors – Vol #2. Dir. Robert Marshall and Nigel Maslin. 1997. Videocassette. Alliance Video, 1997.

and here are two files i scanned from a general MLA handout, they may be helpful :)
