ok ladies and gents... this village needs some MAJOR rescusitation! so here is my attempt: FOREIGN FILMS... are you a fan? have you watched any recent one's that you'd recommend to those of us who are a lil tired of hollywood?

i'll begin by saying my absolute favorite so far has got to be 'El Crimen Del Padre Amaro' - (The Crime of Father Amaro).... an incredible story that incorporates religion, love, and politics into one hell of an intertwined plot. real. raw and completely unfiltered.... and not to mention that gael garcia bernal from motorcycle diaries is in it and damn... M A S H A L L A H. :)

k..so ready? your turn... GO --->

oh yea also the film ALI ZAOUA is good...its about a group of homeless kids in Morocco

Monsieur Ibrahim is a great movie...top 3 in my favorites...HIghly recomend you guys checking it out

umm Amelie is pretty entertaining...although when it first came out peope made it to be like the best thing since sliced bread....but as i said, its cute.

no no no chicky, DONT be sorry. its FANTABULOUS. seriously.. keep 'em comin!!! :)

sorry Eimanie I got carried away (laugh)....what can I say, I eat, drink, breathe, the tv and film industry. Its my industry of work. So I have to be aware. :P

little - monsieur ibrahim i've heard is an excellent film... i started to watch it after renting it one day, but the beginning i found REALLY disturbing, so i stopped it and returned it.. but after, friends told me that it is quite an incredible storyline and i need to rent it again and complete the full thing.... which i will do hopefully. if you check it before i do.. let me know how it goes. and magda.. thanks for the wholesome LIST! WOW.. lol, definitely putting all those on the list of to-watch ;)

I've been wanting to watch Monsier Ibrahim with Omar Sharif...anyone see it? Is it good?

"He Loves Me, He Loves Me Not"....really fun French movie starring Audrey Tautou (awesome actress if you ask me).....The movie is a trip in perspectives and nothing bad that you would normally find in French movies :0... :)

and I forgot to say...a fantastic film (!!!) "The Silence Of The Palace". The young female actress Hend Sabri makes this movie..she is someone I think who will cross over into the Western Film Industry if given the right films, like that Miss India actress in the movie "Bride and Prejudice"...you know Aishwarya Rai...I think she won Miss World as well in the beauty pagents.

lets see...."bicycle thief"...amazing small movie....anything by Luc Besson...french director...heard his "Taxi" movie is amazing, loved "Fifth Element" even with Bruce Willis....Gael Garcia Bernal is dreamy with those Mexican green eyes of his. I have to see his acting in the new Pedro Almodovar movie "Bad Education". "Women on The Verge of A Nervous Breakdown" by Almodovar is hilarious, but abit mad to watch. My personal favourite are the movies by Ang Lee "Man, Woman, Eat, Drink", "Wedding Banquet"...also independent filmmaker is Mira Nair is her first feature "Salaam Bombay"..I dare you to watch it, and not start crying, but same time its very positive, and abit flawed but Karma Sutra and Missisippi Masala have interesting ideas and storylines. Okay tired of typing.. :P

the libyan get together was in libya at the beginning of august...then they were gonna have another one also in tripoli last week, i dont know if they ended up having it or not. I'm for having one in Chicago labour day weekend...anyone in?

I was unable to open the libyan get together info. It sounds fun ...

Children of Heaven is tres cool....has anyone seen it? it is the cutest, cleanest, movie you could ever see. It breaks your heart and makes you happy...
