Donnie Darko (2001,  R)
Donnie Darko
I love Donnie Darko, the reason that i love Donnie Darko is the way that everytime you watch the movie, even talk about the movie you realize a new detail you havent realized before. The movie is a big mystery itself. A cult...

The Edukators (Die Fetten Jahre sind vorbei) (2005,  R)
The Edukators (Die Fetten Jahre sind vorbei)
a story of resistance!

Unlike the similar movies, this movie takes place in present time, not in the late seventies or sth. This three young people are ppl like us, grown up in the nineties, listened the stories of activist people but never seen them alive...

And again, unlike the similar movies, there is also a rich man, but a rich man who used to be an activist at seventies, and now a boss who lives in a great house, has more than 5 luxorious cars, a family and stuff, and the director let him speak too, and yeah, he is right in his own way too...

Amazing performances by actors and actresses making the movie even better...

2:37 (2006,  Unrated)
2:37
leaves a bitter taste for a while. So beautiful.... It's the director's first movie and wow! Starting with a disaster that makes you curious, and than starts showing MTV-reality-like teenagers talking and taking u into the so-called perfect lifes that breaking all of the "perfects" and ends up with a heartbreaking final!

Murali K. Thalluri is offically a cult director by making this movie at his young age.

We, Istanbul Film Festival viewers didnt have a standing ovation as they did in Cannes Film Festival, it's hard to understand to ovate after feeling so bad like that.

I highly reccomend this bittersweet movie to everyone!
