Get Low

One of those simple movies with solid dynamics between Murray, Duvall and Black~ Sissy Spacek ads a touch of class herself.

Mary and Max

The script is poetic and the claymation is inspiring. Not for children.

The Social Network

Such great filmmaking. Everything is on point, but the score shines especially. I couldn't help but watch it twice in two days. The Asian girlfriend literally gave me nightmares.

Waltz with Bashir

Along the same lines as Persepolis, but more visually stunning. A story about the effects of war on the psyche, and so much more. An Israli soldier restoring memories of the Lebanese war.

Downtown 81

I fall asleep at night hoping this is actually how dope it was to live in NYC in 1980. The Basquiat acting scenes are fun, other peoples' non-acting scenes are funner.
