Are those last clips playing slow for everybody?
Maybe I need to wind up my computer's clockworks.
 
I'll try. I'm doing my best to stay ahead of the worst movies thread.
 
Something for the kids. And me, I like'm too.
Don't be afraid to rent these. Everyone is quality. And are better than most "real grownup" films.

I did some double checking. (Always check the facts!)
Turns out that the movies Tsotsi and Yesterday were filmed only in whatever African dialect.
But I remember them in English! Isn't that weird? I guess subtitles are no big deal. As long as the acting is of sufficient quality to convey the emotion.

Also there is def something shady going on with my computer.
There may be a delay in the next episode of Siskle and Spankbelly.
 
Here's a GREAT movie that I just got...Music Within

My husband came across a movie called "Crimen Ferpecto" (The Ferpect Crime) - he made me watch it (hard to get me to sit still for 90 minutes) and it was pretty good! It's subtitled, but it's FUNNY and definitely doesn't lose anything in the language.

Also: I [heart] Huckabee's -- loved it, but hardly come across anyone who has seen it!
