I feel like I've seen a number of really good movies over the last few months. It's difficult to remember some of them, but here's a few that I won't forget watching:
- Into the Wild - loved it. Definitely up there in my all-time favorites list.***
- Juno - best original screenplay Oscar winner. I definitely agree.
- Lars and the Real Girl - The fall favorite at Mars Hill.
- Once - small independent film. Not your typical hollywood blockbuster, but it's a beautiful film (and it won the Oscar for best song!)
- No Country for Old Men - those Coen brothers never cease to amaze***
- Darjeeling Limited - Wes Anderson - he too never ceases to amaze. I would love to know more about this guy's life. It seems painfully obvious that he's been in therapy for awhile now.
- Gone Baby Gone - Ashley and I had no idea what this was about before we saw it (from the title, I actually thought it was about baseball). I won't give it away, but it was intense.***
- King of California - maybe not the best picture out there, but I loved it. It's simple and Michael Douglas was terrific.
- Fracture - Anthony Hopkins, Ryan Gosling - this has been out for awhile. I don't know how it flew under the radar.
***If you're concerned about content, these films could definitely be offensive.

Someone else recently recommended Fracture to us.
I know enough about No Country for Old Men that I won't be seeing that one!
We'll check out the others. You know how much Dad & I love movies!
