Love movies...what's it about?
Speaking of movies, I just saw Crash. WOW. Strong themes of everything happens for a reason, we're all interconnected, etc.
Crash was EXCELLENT. must see movie.
Is it out on DVD yet? I just put in a request with my friends (who are all hanging out tonight!) to try to get that one for us to watch tonight! Thank you for the movie ideas!
I agree... Crash was awesome. I was skeptical at first, because I hadn't seen any trailers for it, or marketing, but after I watched it, I was so glad I didn't pass it up.
Jarhead is on the agenda for this weekend. We'll see how that goes.

Critic's Pick
Type: Features
Distributor: Manifesto Films
Release Date: November 21, 2003
Rating: NR (Substance Abuse (Alcohol, Drugs))
Running Time: 95 minutes
Starring: Christopher Kadish, Michael Hyatt, Ana Reeder, Nestor Rodriguez
Directed by: Rosemary Rodriguez
REVIEW SUMMARY
A mercilessly gritty portrait of Alix (Ana Reeder), a junkie scrounging for herself on the Lower East Side, "Acts of Worship" is drawn from the director's own experiences on the streets more than a decade ago. The core of the movie follows the heroic attempt by Alix's neighbor Digna (Michael Hyatt), a successful young photographer and herself a recovering addict, to rescue her. For all the misery on view, the movie doesn't belong to the shock school of addiction films represented by "Requiem for a Dream" or "Spun," which concentrated on sensations rather than characters. Nor does it pretend to be a weepy Hollywood redemption fantasy. It knows full well that even the happiest endings are conditional and subject to change. Stephen Holden, The New York Times

I loved it....
I can't even describe it......You just have to watch.
It is a look into heroin addiction......
Kerry from here told me to watch it and I am glad I did, very graphic with needles at times, so to anyone be wary if that is gonna be a trigger.....

i actually liked garden state .. but i forgot what it was about again ... anyone see Jarhead ? I want to see that one. Or how about that movie PURE? i think it's a british film about a little boy watching his mommy use heroin all the time.. i don't think its out on video yet.
Trainspotting was a brilliant film.
Watch it.
Karen
Watch it.

Okay, just finished with Trainspotting. Not your typical, run of the mill film, but great, nonetheless. Thanks for the recommendation. It was time well spent.

Pulp Fiction is my favorite movie. Watched that one so many times. I want to try and find that movie Act of Worship. I called Video Treats and they don't have it. Then called Block Busters and they don't have it. Where did you see it? What year did it even come out?
I got it at Blockbuster--call around someone has to have it.
Good luck--Jeff

Dang, they just don't have that movie in this area. Blockbuster checked it out on the computer. No luck. Oh well, I'll have to try and think of another movie to see.
