I was fortunate enough to find another excllent movie at the movie store this weekend...that makes two in a row (prior film was "Russian Ark")

Heaven directed by the same person who did "Run Lola Run" stars Giovani Ribsi and Cate Blanchett. There is really no way of explaining the movie without giving away the whole movie. Half of the movie is in italian, but that is usually translated by Giovani Ribsi, and if not there is subtitiles. The trailer really does not do justice to the film. An excellent film if your looking to stray away from mainstream crap.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0246677/ looks pretty good. i am not one for subtitles though. i despise them.

there really wasnt that much of the film with subtitles, just in the beginning a little. its a good movie if you get to see it.

Thanks for the recommend, Shawshank. I'm always looking out for interesting foreign films. I'll definitely try to find that rental to check it out, along with 'Russian Ark'

Have you ever seen any films by Akira Kurosawa? If not, check out his Dreams - visually beautiful, very interesting, sometimes disturbing. One of the most memorable films I've seen.

Never heard of it! Will check that out, too - the trailer looked interestingly different

Caching is borked. The correct name of Kurosawa is Akira Kurosawa.
