One of my all-time favorite movies. Brilliant script, great performances, and it's Shakespeare. Who could ask for anything more?

Love Actually (2003,  R)
Love Actually 5.0 Stars
I love this film and would watch it again and again. The different story lines that bizarrely (and in very real-world fashion) overlap each have their quirky heartbreaking element that keeps the movie fresh.

Fa Yeung Nin Wa (In the Mood for Love) 4.5 Stars
Gorgeous, utterly gorgeous movie. I think I held my breath the entire time. The atmosphere, the simplicity that allowed the complexity of emotions and situations to rise to the surface...beautiful.

Amelie (Le Fabuleux destin d'Amélie Poulain) (2001,  R)
Amelie (Le Fabuleux destin d'Amélie Poulain) 4.5 Stars
Beautiful, moving, funny...and delightfully simple. It was particularly wonderful to see this in France, in French, on the big screen! I fell in love at first site. Unlike many French films I've seen, it was clever - and adorable! - without being obscure. One of my all-time favorites.

Moulin Rouge! (2001,  PG-13)
Moulin Rouge! 4.0 Stars
An age-old story retold with gusto. I thoroughly enjoyed the fast-paced visual stimulation and the refashioned pop songs. Everyone in it seemed like they were giving 110% - and it's hard not to find that enthusiasm catching. (Plus, it's Ewan McGregor. I never mind watching him for a few hours!)
