I have decided to use this space to mention a couple of films I have seen recently.
The Forgotten is a cross between "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind" and "Signs". I went into the film not knowing what to expect, but was rather pleasantly surprised. Not having any expectations probably contributed to an overall positive experience. As a dark thriller, its might not be everybody's cup of tea. If you have every enjoyed an episode of the X-files, you would probably like this film.
The Heart Elsewhere (pic above) is a great Italian film. Set in Rome and Bologna in the 1920s, its a comedy and yet at the same time, a heartbreaking story of romance and love lost. From my perspective its worth seeing if only for the beautiful actress Vanessa Incontrada.
