Oliver Stone´s JFK and Nixon.

The Laramie Project (based on a true story, with news
clips, awful movie)
The Abyss (the aliens´ message near the end)
Save the Green Planet 

Out of the blue, I´d say that in most cases archive-
footage is supposed to guarantee some sort of
authenticity, but in 

Jeunet´s Amelie (e.g. Stalin´s speech)

Reflections of Evil (the opening sequence is taken
from another movie starring Tony Curtis and newly
dubbed and the meaning completely changed)

and many examples in Monty Python´s Flying Circus
(Nixon once more...)
it serves rather like raw material to play with.
