    Cube: Have not seen. Don't know what it is.
    American Beauty: OH MY GOD! I love this movie. Andrew, it is full of nudity and sex and cussing... but amidst all that is a beautiful story. And wonderful acting.
    Gattaca: I definately want to see this.
    The Last of the Mohicans: Good movie. Very good movie.
    Mulholland Drive: Eh. Never seen it, but not feeling a huge pulling to. Should I?
    The Shawshank Redemption: Yups... need to see this one.
    Stigmata: Also this one. :-)
    Adrian Lyne's Lolita: Eh? Don't know?

    Thanks Leslie! We still love you!

    "Cube" is one of my favorite films. Two months or so back I wrote a fanfic for it and posted it in my journal. I really love it - think it's a fantastic movie.

    "American Beauty" - get Andrew to see it, Rachel, if only for Kevin Spacey. He's so marvelous in it.

    "Gattaca" I think you would love, for the same reasons as I gave Andrew. Plus, it's the only good movie I've ever seen Jude Law in (have yet to see "Road to Perdition", though. The boy has talent, and he's wasted on crap movies like "Immortality" and "eXistenZ". Jude absolutely steals the show in "Gattaca".

    "Mulholland Drive" is by the director of Twin Peaks - dunno if that means anything to you, but I think it's a really good movie. Rather convoluted, though - you have to be in the mood to really examine it deeply, in order to understand what goes on, or the end and many occurences scattered throughout the film will confuse the hell out of you. Also, there's some lesbianism, which may or may not throw you off.

    Adrian Lyne's "Lolita" is the version where Jeremy Irons plays Humbert - I believe it's the finest retelling of the story I know of. It still leaves a lot out, but I think it portrays the truth of Humbert's tragic tale very nicely. And Jeremy Irons is incredible.
