What is The Last Movie You Watched?

Watched salt & narc. Salt was an ok popcorn movie. Narc was pretty crap

I've Loved You So Long has the best female performance of last year. How Kristin Scott-Thomas doesn't win awards by the bucketful is beyond me. Maybe because she does so few English language films these days

Waiting for her most recent movie, Leaving, to drop through the letterbox from LoveFilm.

I've Loved you So Long - totally agree. Hugely moving and the french girl who played her sister was really first class also.

Very rarely watch any of the crash bang wallop crap from Hollywood that passes for movies these days, for years in fact. French, Spanish, German, Korean, new European and Japanese mostly. I'm lucky that the Arts Cinema in Cambridge has a proud tradition of concentrating on world cinema, otherwise I'd only see films on DVD.

And I forgot Latin American cinema too. The Secret in Their Eyes from Argentina is the best film I've seen so far this year.

Late night screenings at the Arts Cinema was my early education in great filmmaking. Glad to hear it is still going strong. Sadly these days I DO watch most of my movies on DVD. Awaiting arrival of a box of some fifty new European films from the EFA real soon. My onerous task is helping choose best european film of the year.

Onerous? Lucky bastard, more like. Need any help???

If it's strictly 2011, my pick would be Potiche which I saw last week.

If it's the last twelve months, then I'd go for Julia's Eyes.

Not that I'm trying to influence you in any way, old chap.

Yet to see Potiche.... a great flm, if it's finally released here, is The Double Hour. And a wonderful european documentary Armadillo which follows a Danish unit in Helmand province. Compelling for grim.
