    La Vie en Rose

    I'm sure I must have seen a more emotionally wrenching movie in my lifetime, but I can't think of one.

    An excellent film.... not uplifting or a "date movie" but excellent none the less.

    Nine and thirty-one thirty-seconds out of ten.

    "Blood Diamond" didn't like it..
    Given the theme of the movie, a far better film could be made without so many cliche and the puke ending

    This is perhaps one of the best films i've seen since the beginning of the year .
    Yes, I loved Babel also ........

    I've seen Chicago last evening and I liked it, I love a good musical from time to time and the movie had some good performances.

    Couldn't help wondering if Catherine Zeta Jones was the right choice for that part though .....

    Catherine Zeta Jones while pretty and all is never the right choice for the part

    It's too late. Mirror just happened to be at the top of my list when I upgraded my netflix plan, getting 3 movies at a time instead of 2 and within minutes of clicking that button, Mirror was on it's way. I hadn't really thought of that when I did it, I should have arranged the queue first and then upgraded.

    Along with Mirror, which I haven't seen yet and won't get to until after the weekend, I got The Science of Sleep which I did watch. It was odd and wonderfully surreal. Once I stopped trying to figure out what was real and what was a dream, I just enjoyed the ride. Again with the lack of resolution at the end but I'm learning to cope.

    I watched a film called The Breed last night. I haven't decided if I liked it or not. I guess it gets a 6/10. The movie just sort of ends very abruptly like maybe they ran out of money in the making. Much of the movie wasn't well explanined, and I was just left somewhat pleased, but asking myself what just had happened. I really need to stop renting bad horror/monster movies, but they're my favorite

    Yes Ingmar Bergman, the Swedish director. But you're confusing him with Lars Von Trier, the Danish new wave director who's linked to the dogma film movement and who directed The Idiots, Breaking the Waves, Dogville...

    Nop..i bet it's good..
    Here's what i've seen:
    "The Red Desert", loved this one, bought the dvd right away
    "The Eclipse", one of the best films i've seen in my life, own it too
    "The Night ", it was good but not like the other two
    "The cry", very nice
    "Chronicle of a Love " i own this one too but i didn't like it that much
    "Identification of a Woman", good but not like his older films, i think
    ..i hope i am not forgetting anything..
