Does anyone have any good sources? I'm writing a medical ethics paper. I've seen some sources already (e.g The Island) however I'm wondering if the community has stumbled upon anything.
Any suggestions?

The only movie about cloning I can think about is "Replicant" with Jean Claude van Damme.

You could always pick up Star Wars II and III, or books about Republic Commandoes + book Clone Wars. While just barely touching problem of cloning and enchanced age development in SW2+3, the actual Star Wars books has some info about that, and some development of different personalities, except for looking all the same, etc. etc. I haven't read books for a long time, but I think it may suit your needs.

- Star Wars: The Clone Wars
- Star Wars Republic Commando: Hard Contact
- Star Wars Republic Commando: Triple Zero
- Star Wars Republic Commando: True Colors
- Star Wars Republic Commando: Order 66
- Star Wars Imperial Commando: 501st

Gattaca

Good movie about a society that consists of an genetically optimised elite and some "naturally created" social underclass.

There is a book in which a cloned sibling is used as a "organ bank" for the "true 1st born". Life of my sister? Something like that.

Definitely this. Gattaca is a must-see movie IMHO for everyone.

Also you can look into TED lectures if you want. I am quite sure you'll find something about it.

The 6th day

As for star wars, there is even more on the star wars science of cloning and its relationship with the force, found the Heir to the Empire novel trilogy, more so than even the prequel associated media.

Also you might wanna check out the movie 'Splice' that is about modern life patenting and genetic chimaeras. Its a scifi thriller but as like most in our age are jammed full of real science and theory on the topic. In fact its more likely the just want us to think its still fictional Wink

Yesterday I saw a programme about some folks trying to clone a woolly mammoth, quite interesting. "How to clone a woolly mammoth" it was called, and it also (briefly) goes into the ethics of cloning, and also cloning of pets. Not sure the top link (the full programme) is working outside of Denmark (maybe you can use a proxy to view it), and the bottom two are teasers.
