what are the chances you'll like movies that i like?
hmmmmmmm
most people liked "eternal sunshine of the spotless mind."
"motorcycle diaries" was good.
"capturing the friedmans" is very good but pretty harrowing.
i wouldn't go out of your way to see "spellbound." it's a documentary about kids in spelling bees (contests to spell obscure and difficult words)...

You NEED to see 2046! This is most important. Actually I need to see 2046 as well. I have no idea if Garden State is any good, but it seems pretty nice. I take it you've seen Cigarettes and Coffee and Eternal Sunshine..? If not, you need to do so. There are some good Swedish and Danish ones. I've benn told that Oldboy is quite good. The documentaries like Spellbound, Supersize Me and Capturing the Friedmans are worth checking out. Almodovar's Bad Education, Ozon's 5x2. Oh and you need to see 2046!

spellbound is good, but i didn't think it would be such a crowd pleaser. go with deepspace, if you will...

Ok, my two cents:
"Capturing the Friedman's" - Very great documentary. I've seen it, so watch it and share your thoughts on the verdict. Guilty or Bullshit charges? Horrible or heartbreaking. Incredible film.
"2046" - Wow, I can't believe you get to see this. Wong kar-Wai is probably my favorite living director. DO NOT MISS IT! Tell me how it is. (Look out for the fantastic cinematography of the great Chris Doyle)
"Eternal Sunshine" - Haven't seen it yet, but Gondry is interesting. The screenplay is by the tremendous Charlie Kaufman of Being John Malkovich and Adaptation fame.

i bought my tickets today!! 27 of them..although i'll only get to see 15 different films - i wish they'd extend the festival for another week, as it's a bit much to see couple of films every day for two weeks. anyway, i'll get to see most of the films i wanted to :)

If i would go i would see "The Beatiful Country" by my favorite director Hans Peter Molland .
He has done two of my favorite movies "Aberdeen" and "Zero Kelvin" , he is super talented , and he works with the super talented actor Stellan Skarsgård.
I have not seen this one yet but i plan to.
Filmsm.

did you get to see 2046? If not you should be ashamed of yourself! :)
I was all ready to see it at the London film festival, then found out it was sold out, I was gutted :(
