I watched "The Lives of Others" earlier. Good film, really enjoyed it.
Before you all rush out to rent it on my say-so, it is in German so you will be reading sub-titles, but don't let that put you off.
true, tis good. I find after 20 minutes I don't realise the subtitles and sort of subconsciously read them. |

I'm pretty much the same. I saw The Counterfeiters recently - that was a pretty good film. |

I'm also the same with subtitles. Even if I'm drunk. Although if I am drunk it will still often put me off watching a subtitled film.

I'm sure I've seen that but really can't remember it. I just watched In the valley of Elah, kinda portrays the impact of iraq on american squaddies. Not a bad film, and TL Jones is a fairly reliable actor, as is Charlize Theron, but couldn't help feel something was missing from it. |

Catch me if you can is a blinder IMO. Christopher Walken has a habit of turning up in good films. True story as well.
