Netflix Rentals: April, 2008

May 4th, 2008 - 5:59 pm

Busy month, so I didn’t get to watching as many films as I would have hoped. The Diving Bell and the Butterfly is as beautiful as it is poetic, quite possibly Julian Schnabel’s best piece. Lars and the Real Girl only reinforces my love for Ryan Gosling’s acting, putting two of his films (Half Nelson and this) in my top favorites. I also watched Annie Hall again, it’s been years, and can’t believe how similar Larry David’s comedic prose are to Woody’s. To think the two will be in a film side-by-side next year really gets me excited.

  • The Diving Bell and the Butterfly ★★★★
  • Before the Devil Knows You’re Dead ★★★
  • Lars and the Real Girl ★★★★★
  • Atonement ★★★
  • American Gangster ★★★
  • Reservation Road ★★
  • Annie Hall ★★★★★

    Only three stars for “Before the Devil Knows You’re Dead”?? I thought that was one of the best movies to come out recently. Just the way they told the story was great,Philip Seymour Hoffman stole the show like he does on a regular. Lars and the Real Girl was great and deserves five stars!!
