United 93 with a bullet inside a bullet lodged in the chest of another bullet. I thought Little Miss Sunshine was the best thing I had seen this year until that movie came along and crushed all my hopes and dreams. Awesome.
Best of 2006 so far...
Hey all this is my first post i dont know if its in the right forum or anything, however i have forgotten the name of a movie, i remember seeing a trailer for it a few months back and thought it looked interesting. I am pretty sure it was a love story set over 1000 or so years, starting in ancient times then progressing to the future, also it had something to do with a tree of life, i remember seeing a tree incased in crystal somewhere in the trailer. does anybody know the name of this film ? any help would be greatly aprectiated

Yes, we all know the name of that movie: it's The Fountain, directed by Darren Aronofsky (Pi, Requiem for a Dream), starring Hugh Jackman and Rachel Weisz. It was booed at it's screening at the Venice Film Festival last month, and it's currently scheduled for release at the end of November.

"The Fountain was screened at the 63rd Venice Film Festival in early September, where the film was booed by some critics while others applauded it.[11] However at the public showing (one day later) it received a standing ovation." - Wiki
RT has it at 50% though... We shall see...Story sounds interesting, anyway.

Thread hi-jacker, indeed.
Pay It Forward, American History X and The Green Mile are three pretty good bets.

I would go for Dancer in the Dark if you want to get crushed by a film...
Also, See Requiem for a Dream if you want to experience some visceral cinema..not so much sad, per se. Harsh ****, though...

I rolled my eyes all through Requiem For A Dream. I thought that movie was absolutely pathetic
