The best films I saw in 2008, w/ one comment



01 In Bruges
02 Cloverfield
03 The Dark Knight

04 Noriko's Dinner Table (Noriko no Shokutaku, 2005)
Sion Sono's second facet to his yet to be realized Suicide Circle Trilogy is a masterwork in its own right and a film that speaks of life being as perfect as one makes it — as well as finding solace in those terrific choices, and discovering that escape is just as easily realized walking away single-handed than bounding forward holding hands.

05 Frozen River
06 Snow Angels (2007)
07 Ils (2006)
08 Let The Right One In (Låt den rätte komma in)
09 The Strangers (2008)
10 Be Kind, Rewind
11 Wall•E
12 Tell No One (Ne le dis à personne, 2006)

Merry Christmas everyone!

Here are my Top 5 Xmas songs/video links. Gotta like some of these classics.

#. Carol Of The Bells by Trans Siberian Orchestra (Choral version, MTC)


#. Sleigh Ride by The Ronettes


#. Winter Wonderland by Johnny Mathis


#. All I Want For Christmas Is You by Mariah Carey (whew)




#. Blue Christmas by Elvis Presley (sort of cheesy and dated, really)


Happy Holidays, all!
