Re: What is the latest movie you watched and what did you think of it?
The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo (2009). Swedish film from a popular writer there. Yes, it has subtitles, but the blu-ray is already available and they read well into a coherent story of a long-lost girl and research being conducted to find her. There's plenty of action, the acting is quite good, and the characters warrant exploration into the other two films (also available) in the Millennial series.
One note, the original Swedish title translates to, "Men Who Hate Women". There are lots of scenes that live up to this title. However, it is quite central to the story.
Prior to this movie, and Let the Right One In (also highly recommended), this was the only Swedish I believe I had ever heard... :P

Vakt: "Ah... You know, I'm half Swedish! Hej, hur har resan varit hittills?"
Allen & Freddie"Ja. Ja. Oh, ja. Yes. Sure. Ja. Ja."
Walter: "Well..."
Vakt: "Just a second. Vad gör en svensk vetenskapmän så långt iväg från Sverige?"
Freddie: "Hej raring, jag har en 12 tums penis."
Vakt: "Aahhh...."
När de har blivit insläppta i nästa korridor undrar Allen över Freddies svenskkunskaper:
Allen: "How the hell did you do that?"
Freddie: "Well, let me tell you something. Many of your finer nudie films come from Sweden. Well, after you see them 400-500 times this stuff starts to sink in."
Also, saw The Disappearance of Alice Creed (2009). Let's say you are a young, aspiring director with a limited budget and a lot of talent. The best way to get noticed is to take 3 quality actors, a good camera person, an interesting script, and make your mark. This movie is a solid example of what can be done with that kind of talent and ambition. Everything has to come together, or it will be a snoozer. This minimalist thriller was quite worthy of my time, and I believe it will be worth yours.

That will be interesting to see him dressed up with the goth make-up, piercings, and playing as a woman. If he pulls it off, I'll put him up there with Gary Oldman for range of characters.

It wouldn't surprise me. He's played Beethoven, and a black pimp. Who else could do that? :idunno:

You mean because he's not black or because he's not a pimp?
Just yesterday I watched Shutter Island. Although I never liked that Leonardo DiCaprio f** I must admit that was one brilliant piece of movie entertainment
