MORE MOVIES, PLEASE!!!

Dear everybody,
Here we are again!!

Well, as surprising as it may seem, the movie Machete seems to have become very popular among our students! I must confess that I haven't watched it yet, though...

I hope you also enjoy these new titles, I'd love to get input on these (lots of drama, I'm afraid...):



The Social Network
Drama: USA (2010)
A story about the founders of the social-networking website, Facebook.



The Stoning Of Soraya M.
Drama: USA (2008)
A drama set in 1986 Iran and centered on a man, Sahebjam, whose car breaks down in a remote village and enters into a conversation with Zahra, who relays to him the story about her niece, Soraya, whose arranged marriage to an abusive tyrant had a tragic ending.




The New Daughter
Horror, Thriller: (USA (2009)
A single father moves his two children to rural South Carolina, only to watch his daughter exhibit increasingly strange behavior.


Thanks again for all your comments. In case you missed them, here are two great recommendations by your fellow students:

Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps
Drama: USA (2010)
As the global economy teeters on the brink of disaster, a young Wall Street trader partners with disgraced former Wall Street corporate raider Gordon Gekko on a two-tiered mission: To alert the financial community to the coming doom, and to find out who was responsible for the death of the young trader's mentor.



Resident Evil: Afterlife
Action:USA (2010)
While still out to destroy the evil Umbrella Corporation, Alice joins a group of survivors who want to relocate to the mysterious but supposedly unharmed safe haven known only as Arcadia.


Just one last idea for those of you who enjoy dark comedies:

Louise-Michel
Comedy: FRANCE (2008)
What to do when the workers of a factory have been laid off overnight? Louise has an original idea: why not pool the compensation money to ... hire a hit man and to liquidate the boss? Motion accepted so Louise goes in search of the gem they need and unfortunately comes across Michel, a stinky security specialist...



;-) Ta!

I think Louise and Michel ended up hiring Machete to do the job...
