Biutiful - Wasn't expecting a lot from this cause I thought Babel was just awful and kinda prententious, plus this was hammered by a lot of critics, but I actually quite liked it. I read some of the critics reviews and they attacked it for being too bleak, which is dumb. It was a little overlong and some subplots could have been taken out but the cinematography and score were amazing. Bardem was fantastic as well, def made the movie, he is one of the best actors working today, he also looks like he has a huge head, I mean that literally too, like his cranium/mandible looks massive.

The Phenix City Story - Really entertaining B Noir from the 50s. About a town corrupted by crime and a father/son lawyer team who fight to clean the town up in the name of democracy or whatever. Really dark for it's time, there is a scene where a twelve year old black girl is killed then thrown onto the lawyer's lawn. It was also based on a true story and I was dissapointed to find that the younger lawyer John Patterson apparently went on to run for governor of Alabama, and ran a segregationist campaign that was to the right of friggin George Wallace(who was a pretty big racist). But he also endorsed Barrack Obama so who knows.
