I love the ideas explored in American Beauty, the idea of being in a metaphorical coma, and one day something happens and you just wake up..

I remember the first time I saw that, going back a while. I've only seen it once but I remember it being weird but half decent.

checked out the negative reviews on Rotten Tomatoes, it seems like anyone who didn't like the movie doesn't understand the idea of unspoken characterization

74% on RT, overall.

That's about right

7/10, the ending let it down if I recall rightly.

I loved the ending! Reminded me of Amelie in a twisted sort of way

Maggie Gyllenhaal nude didn't hurt either

The Innocents (1961) by Jack Clayton, starring Deborah Kerr. It's based on Henry James novel The Turn of the Screw, the screenplay adapted largely by Truman Capote.

It's obvious that this film was a great influence on Amenabar's The Others. Both films are great, but what I especially like about this one is the ambiguity that leads the way to different interpretations. Also, the gothic setting and black and white cinematography are beautiful.

Solid. Very solid.

^ I NEED to see that movie.
Last night I watched half of Memento, which really ruins it (if you've ever seen the movie or know what it's about).

WHAT?!

You can't watch half and half.
Why didn't you finish it?

You need to watch it from the start if you're gonna rewatch it. It's a hard plot to follow..
