This is not a game you can win, so don't try. Maybe over at QLC you can impress people, but here having seen one indie move doth not make you goddamn Orson Welles.

I don't know if this movie is as good as i remember it to be or not and I cannot find it anywhere but it was called Purple Haze, about a guy's last night before going to Vietnam. The end was great.

I imagine most people here haven't heard of "My Life as a Dog." It's a Swedish movie from fifteen years ago at least, very very good.

Psycho Beach Party.
"The King of Hearts"
excellent movie, but the best part is it comes with a cartoon before the feature.
"Bambi meets Godzilla", only about 45 seconds, but hilarious.

No, Machinist is better than all those movies because it is more substance to it than just the gimmick. I think most people aren't able to look past the twist since they've seen something similar so many times. This is truly a great movie.

I just watched Oldboy tonight and agree it is very good. But I don't really get it maybe it will come to me in a couple of days. I understand the plot, but what's the point?

Why do people continue to mention movies like Run Lola Run and this one? Killing Zoe was pretty huge when it was out.

I don't know what you mean by huge. I was in college when it came out and I went to see it at the Angelika in NYC which shows mainly small, indy movies. I don't recall any large chain theatres playing it or any mainstream media hype.

i am happy to see praise being given to 13 conversations about one thing.
since no one has mentioned it yet:
Primer.
mainly because it was the first movie that i couldn't get my head around the first time i saw it. and the fact it was made by complete amateurs for pretty much zero money makes it an even greater accomplishment.
hmmm, imamge works in preview post but not when i post it. oh well.
