Favorite Movies
wow - far too many to think of, but ok of ones i've seen recently, i really liked Volver, with Penelope Cruz, and also Hotel Rwanda.... but i have many many many films i love, its hard to pick a favourite. i like most things, but i particularly like unusual films that make you concentrate, or tell a true story about people faced with adversity, or something that makes you consider your own life and how you are as a person. i like the independent films, the foreign language ones, and Documentaries too
