YOU MAY NEED TO BE AN OWD BUGGER, BUT THAT FILM HAS THE LOT

NOT AS STARK AND GUT WRENCHING AS RWANDA, BUT AN EXCELLENT EFFORT ALL THE SAME
No, no, no please don't misunderstand, I think Forest Gump gave a great deal of different messages across, not more then peoples underestimation of disability. as well as being a good emotional rollacoster. My comment was aimed at the fact that they were two films that could not be more different.

No Man's Land, a Serbian/Croatian film (won an Oscar in 2001 if I remember rightly) is also superb and very powerful.

Forgot to add "Once were Warriors" to my list. New Zealand film about a serial wife beater. Amazingly memorable.

Bard PItt in Snatch is ridiculous, ask any irishman. Joke accent. It's up there with his accent in "3 year in tibet."

Thought "CONTACT" was well done. Good Ending. Also "THE BODY", again, good ending. Both thought provoking.

It's pulp summit actually. The classic tale of a paper manufacturer’s board room tussles. Now showing on Film4 every night at 11pm.

Go with you on the Godfather trilogy. Terrific films all. Kez was amazingly realistic and hilarious in parts. Casino? Overlong excuse for mindless violence. Just my opinion.

Lawrence of Arabia is my number one...

...but as a student of arty foreign films, try The Double Life of Veronique for something really haunting (and the beautiful Irene Jacob). Hotel Rwanda is a powerful reminder of something that was easily forgotten by us pampered Europeans
