Best Movie You Have Seen In Last Month?

[galadrium]

I am going to go with Hitch. How about you?

[saltpoint]

1. Pedro Almodovar's MALA EDUCACION.

--a crafty noir ambush.

[sundog]

14. is it on dvd yet?

[saltpoint]

19. not sure, but it's still in a lot of theaters -- at least the --

-- art houses.

There's a creepiness to it that mainstream audiences will find repulsive, but if you like Hitchcock, there's nothing in it to really bother you.

After poor Tippi Hedrin got pecked half to death by those birds, I came out of it prepared for just about anything!

It's a little edgy, a little creepy, with very clever twists.

[sundog]

20. Which of his other films would you liken it to?

or is it new territory altogether?

[saltpoint]

21. There's some of the narrative edge of ALL ABOUT MY --

-- MOTHER, but it's more autobiographical, more confessional.

Mostly newer territory, but in the way that Hitchcock is "new" by making the familiar odd.

When I walked out of the theater, I felt that I had experienced the events as a witness instead of watched it as a ticket-buyer.

2. Urbania

Which I just watched again.

Khash.

[realisticphish]

3. The Godfather

first time i had ever seen it, and i was blown away

:hippie: The Incorrigible Democrat

[last_texas_dem]

4. Finding Neverland

It's also the only movie I've seen this month, but it was good.

[KoKo]

5. House of the Flying Daggers.

[Scout]

6. Million Dollar Baby

[Reverend_Smitty]

7. I'll second that one

best movie I've seen in a while

[sundog]

8. Chaplin's "The Kid" & Menzel's "Closely Watched Trains"

[Beware the Beast Man]

9. Shaun of the Dead

rented it two weeks ago. Excellent and funny.

[NightTrain]

10. HOTEL RWANDA.

[CO Liberal]

11. Troy

It was on DirecTV pay-per-view.

[GreenPartyVoter]

12. Elf or Collateral, I guess.

[Rabrrrrrr]

13. Hotel Rwanda. THough Finding Neverland was damned good, too

But it has to go to Hotel Rwanda, since it's a true story of incredible evil

[Celeborn Skywalker]

18. So sad, wasn't it?

I can't believe the fucking Oscars didn't even nominate Hotel Rwanda for best picture. I think it's the best I've seen all year.

[KitchenWitch]

15. Million Dollar Baby

[tcoursen]

16. High Noon

Having two small kids at home limits how often I get to go out to the movies. Throw in the fact that movies are overpriced and that most movies coming out these days pretty much suck, I usually wait till they are out on video.

I want to see sideways.

I may rent Hotel Rwanda, but I usually just can't watch movies that look like they will depress me. This is why I have never watched Schindler's list.

So I rented the classic western High Noon. Had never seen it before. Very good movie. If you like westerns.

17. coach carter nt

[frogbison]

22. Watched The Grudge

with hubby tonight...I had to sit right next to him. One creepy movie!

[Left Is Write]

23. Don't think I've seen one in the last month.

My husband wants to see Constantine.

[Flaxbee]

24. The Motorcycle Diaries, Control Room and The Station Agent

looooved The Station Agent, I really like quiet movies and this was very good.

[Radical Activist]

25. Hotel Rwanda

Incredible movie. It is the best picture of the year, no matter what the Oscars say. Very moving, disturbing and inspiring.

[Cadence]

26. Hitch definitely. n/t
