    Of course. Bardem's character was extraordinary and brilliantly constructed. It was a powerful performance; very captivating and haunting. There is obviously more depth to his character in No Country for Old Men compared to the romantic lover in Vicky Cristina Barcelona. It's like comparing day and night; both great films, however.

    Glad you're back.

      After Jimmy

      This movie is basically about a teenager thats not happy with his life, without anyone knowing about it, & the way he wanted to end his life was by commiting suicide so when he foundout how to kill himself he was all happy & perky around his family until he was home alone & shot himself in the mouth.
      3/5

        I agree with the explanation.

          Man on Wire

          In this suspenseful documentary, we enter the life of Philippe Petit, a daring tightrope walker who made his way across the World Trade Center's twin towers in 1974. I wasn't at all surprised when I discovered the director's intentions were to film this documentary as a hesit film. Petit's commentary keeps you at the edge of your seat throughout the entire film. This documentary, overall, is filmed quite beautifully. Definitely the best documentary I have seen from 2008. It would probably make my top ten list of my favorite films of 2008.

          Irma la Douce

          After seeing The Apartment, I had to see the many collaborations of Billy Wilder and Jack Lemmon. Irma la Douce tells the story of a Paris streetwalker who meets an honest policeman. When jealousy erupts, Nestor (Jack Lemmon) does everything he possibly can to make sure Irma (Shirley MacLaine) doesn't sleep with any other men. Although at times the film comes to a rather slow hault, Lemmon and MacLaine are brilliant and have great chemistry. The two actors, including Lou Jacobi who plays the bartendar, Moustache, keep the film alive. Worth a watch but not the best work from either the director or these two brilliant actors.

              I am so jealous. I probably won't be able to see it until sometime in February.

              Say nothing in this thread. I have been waiting how long for this film?

                    In "The Rural Juror," an episode of television's 30 Rock, Tina Fey explains how she avoids telling her struggling actress friend Jane Krakowski how she truly feels about the atrocious productions she appears in -- by complementing a single aspect of them that isn't so bad.

                    That said, Revolutionary Road was beautifully designed: cinematography, costumes, and sets -- all top-notch.

                    Now read Stephanie Zacharek's review for the rest.

                      Burn After Reading - 9/10

                      Saw this in the discount movie theatres this past weekend. It has George Clooney, Brad Pitt and John Malkovich in it. It's sort of a "spy-thriller-comedy" film and is nothing short of hilarious. I especially love how John Malkovich acts in this movie, very funny! This is one of those movies that if you want to get your mind off the world, you should see.

                      The only reason I gave it a "9" and not a "10" was due to the fact that I wish it had been longer.
