Some Films

Things I've watched recently that I would recommend:

The Wendell Baker Story (if you're a fan of The Life Aquatic, Royal Tenenbaums, et. al.)
-Made by all three Wilson brothers (Luke, Owen and Andrew)
-Features a fake-ID scam, a retirement community and Kris Kristofferson.
-Why has nobody ever heard of it?

Southland Tales (if you like your cinema stylized and absurd)
-Features (most notably) Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, Wallace Shaun, and several SNL cast members.
-Storyline includes the Iraq war, time travel, celebrity scandals, and murder.

Romance and Cigarettes (a quasi-musical, but don't fear it)
-Christopher Walken dances.
-One of my professors is in it (yeah, Papa Joe!)
-James Gandolfini and Susan Sarandon kick ass.
-Oh yeah, Steve Buscemi, too.
