Cool Fenvy!!

Crzyme, you may find them at a normal video store, but the only way to SURELY find any film I like (indie and foreign film) is to buy them in Amazon.com or to watch IFC.

A Clockwork Orange, however, you will find at a normal video store. But, the movie is pretty harsh, some say disturbing.

Nadja I think would be the hardest to find in a video store.

Winged Migration is a docu-film-esque that was pretty famous, so I think it'll be easy to find it.

Swimming Pool, you'll be able to find that anywhere, same with Cherish.

Lagaan: Once Upon a Time in India is a foreign film though. So, it's either Amazon or a really big video store with lots of movies.

The Crime of Padre AMaro is a foreign film, but it's pretty famos (for being a foreign film) so it's easier to get.

Innocence I saw once on Starz.

I also recommend Rabbit-Proof Fence, and the film Beautiful Thing and Better than Chocolate.

If there is one film you have to see from this bunch, hwoever, I'd say go for A Clockwork Orange. It's one of the best films I have ever seen.

Yes, I only watch indie/foreign films, or films no one but a few people know about. I feel like a freak.

I havne't seen any of those. :/. Are they foreign, or would I be able to rent them at a videostore?


What if what you think is great, really is great, but it's not as great as something greater?

I really recommend 'Maria Full of Grace'.

It's a movie about the reality of drug trafficing and a longing for survival. It really is a powerful film. It's subtitled, so it has those little letters at the bottom of the screen.

My cousin acts as Maria in the movie. NO, I am not lying.

I know, I was crying. But it's a good film for emotional days.
