Earlier this year I watched the most enchanting Spanish Pan's Labyrinth and came to realize that the art of great film making still, thankfully, existed outside of the suburb of Avaricious Hollywood.

With that Spanish recommendation in mind, I also wish to commend to anyone's film list, the slow-fused, compelling but utterly delightful German language sub-titled The Lives of Others.

There is hope in cinematography.

I loved The Lives of Others, but my favourite film at the moment is Darren Aronofsky's The Fountain (currently available on Play.com for £4 and worth a lot more). Everyone should stop what ever they were doing and watch this masterpiece as a matter of urgency... Imo.

Thanks Damien, I'm getting hold of a copy...

I just watched Antichrist. I'm not sure I liked it. I think I did, but I would be able to smile if I had. Wouldn't I?
