Actually, the titles differ slightly, so I think they count as two different answers.

[W](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0072386/) (without a period)

There are five other movies with this title.

[W.](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1175491/) (with a period, the recent movie about George W. Bush.)

There is one other movie with this title.
