- Food, Inc., 2008. Didn’t learn much I didn’t already know, but still disgusted me. I didn’t like, however, how the focus was mostly on the meat industry and not on mass production of fruits and vegetables using cancer-causing pesticides. I also didn’t like the last of action items at the end of the film. You made me feel paranoid about what I eta, but now what?
- Crash, 1996. Dumb movie with next-to-no plot, but hey! Rent it if you want to see Holly Hunter’s tit or watch James Spader fuck a vagina like scar on Rosanna Arquette’s leg. I do not get James Spader as a sex symbol. Not at all.
- The Universe of Keith Haring, 2008. I did not like his art, but this movie made me a fan of him as an artist.

- Wild Things, 1998. Awesomely awful in a Showgirls kind of way. Actually, probably even better than Showgirls, thanks to the feeling that almost every actor (Bill Murray!) is in on the joke. Also, a kick-ass soundtrack with Morphine.
- In the Realms of the Unreal, 2004. Heartbreaking story about outsider artist Henry Darger. His art is amazing, but he must have been so hurt by humanity to withdraw so much. Made me sad.
- I’m Not There, 2007. As a Dylan fan, I absolutely loved it. Hard to pick a favorite segment but Richard Gere’s, Cate Blanchett’s and Heath Ledger’s were all perfect in different ways. Just like Dylan.
