Samotny mężczyzna (2009)
Colin Firth is good. Very, very good.
The movie was directed by Tom Ford and co-written by Ford and David Scearce, based on a novel by Christopher Isherwood. Ford takes loving care with long scenes
Ciekawy przypadek Benjamina Buttona (2008)
Directed by David Fincher, this movie is based on a short story by F. Scott Fitzgerald, published in 1922. I've read the short story, but ignoring it when I review the movie is easy as there is basically
Shall we dansu? (1996)
I saw the American cut of this Japanese movie, which has several scenes and characters removed. At that, "Shall We Dance" is a charming movie with tons of heart.
Written and directed by Masayuki Suo,
Amador (2010)
I watched this on DVD with subtitles.
This is a great movie. It's about Marcela, a South American living in Spain and facing mild discrimination because she's an immigrant taking jobs away from Spaniards.

Hot Fuzz: Ostre psy (2007)
Co-written by Simon Pegg and Edgar Wright, directed by Wright, and starring Pegg, this is one of the funniest movies I've seen. I compare it to the "Hot Shots" movies by Abrahms and Proft. Part slasher

Napoléon (1927)
I recommend taking a look at the Wikipedia page.
TL;DR: Waaaaay too long, but the music was magnificent. So was the theater.
The movie is five and a half hours long, not counting 2 intermissions
Ludzie będą gadać (1951)
This 1951 film directed by Joseph L. Mankiewicz has more promise than it fulfilled. The problem is the character of Noah Praetorius, too good to believable. The movie stars Cary Grant as the noble Noah,
Chłopiec i jego pies (1975)
A Boy and his Dog
Directed by L.Q. Jones, this movie stars Don Johnson before anybody knew who he was (at age 26, if my math is right), Susanne Benton (nobody still knows who she is*), and Jason Robards
Stormy Weather (1943)
This all-black movie was produced in 1943, and it marks the changing of the guard in how blacks were portrayed in Hollywood movies. The movie is a hallmark of black performers: Bill "Bojangles" Robinson,
The Artist
I liked it, but I think we do agree that it wasn't as great as many people think. C'est la vie.
