Tell No One: A French thriller about a guy trying to figure out who killed his wife eight years ago. Totally captivating, with well developed characters that you actually care about and a good plot with plenty of unexpected twists and turns. Award: Oscar.
Vicky Cristina Barcelona: A story of two girls who live abroad in Spain for a summer. Everything that I like in Woody Allen movies without most of the stuff that I hate about Woody Allen movies. Warm, fun and total escapism--and how cute is Javier Bardem?! Award: Golden Globe.
The Diving Bell and the Butterfly: Based on the story of a Elle editor who wakes from an accident to find that his entire body is paralyzed. Beautifully shot in French and one of those movies that makes you ask yourself: “Who/What do I really need/want/love in life?” Award: Oscar.
Man on Wire: Documentary about Philippe Petit, a French guy who walked on a tightrope between the World Trade Center Towers in the 1970s. Fascinating story that is artfully told, but somehow I was disappointed. Award: People’s Choice.
Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid: Robert Redford AND Paul Newman? Of course it’s good. Very fun and perfect for a Saturday afternoon. Award: Golden Globe.
