Great film that really handles time travel in a great way. Slightly confusing.

Man that was an oddball flick....in a good way. Odd as hell, but I liked it.

Ping Pong, Japanese live action film about ping pong and existentialism.

Nolan fans have surely seen "Following"

I picked it up after first seeing Memento when it was released way back when.

Yeah own it, perfect for this thread....What about L.I.E? I don't think it's been said.

"California Dreaming" 1979

Germtop · 02-06-2009, 03:28 AM

Savior with Dennis Quaid.

It's based on the real life story about a CIA agent who goes on a rampage after his family gets killed by terrorists. He joins the foreign legion and later becomes a mercenary working for the Serbs during the Balkans war.

It's a very tragic and compelling story.

drobswim13 · 02-06-2009, 04:35 AM

Falling In Love 1984

Variable · 02-06-2009, 05:49 AM

I listen to a podcast called 'filmspotting' and from time to time they do marathons. right now they're doing one they call "Angry Young Men" and I've watched on of the movies so far and found it to be extremely well acted. I think it was made in England, in 1959.

name is: Look Back In Anger

Good ones there!
Just thought of a couple more... nothing blockbuster, but ones I'd not heard of that I rented and enjoyed:

I'm Reed Fish
Charlie Bartlett

Oh, and one I always keep forgetting about until I see it in my DVD collection:
Three Kings ... not really unknown, but one I always forget about.
