Blue Valentine

A drama about a couple going through marriage problems that ends up being so much more than a drama about a couple going through marriage problems. Double F's: Fantastic & Fresh.

Ariel

My favorite movie of recent memory. The wonderful actors are hilarious and touching at the same time, and the story is wild. I want to watch it over and over.

The Great Happiness Space

A strangely unraveling documentary about male 'hosts' in Japan. The subjects are frank and sincere to the camera (although not to each other). I was left feeling empty and alone, at which point I re-watched 'Up' to lift my spirits (just kidding Teddy).

Tokyo!

I'm always biased towards movies that take place in Japan and tryptich films, so I liked it more than like. One story is fun, one is scary, and one is confusing, I'm not sure which is which.

WALL-E

The last robot to inhabit a destroyed planet Earth falls in love. Easily the most experimental (and best?) Pixar movie ever, which says a lot.

The Science of Sleep

I saw this a while ago. Watch the whole thing if you plan to see it at all (I hated the first 30 minutes if I recall correctly). It is quirky. Busted. I am a romantic. Damn.
