The Fountain - 9/10 This film is effectively about life extension/immortality and/or reincarnation centering around two individuals romantically involved (Hugh Jackman and some women whom I've forgotten the name of). Made my the same chap who directed "Requiem for a Dream". Although I usually cringe at most film romance, I found this to be acceptable. What really makes the movie good is its non-linear story line which confuses you by jumping between three differing periods of time. The plot and its message takes some thinking about but I still think it can be enjoyed with out any thought effort basically for the way its shot and edited. I thought the music was brilliant and befitting. I was suprised at Hugh Jacnkman's acting which I also thought was quite good). Ideally watched whilst stoned but noting that I say this about most things. The Believer - 8/10 This one stars Ryan Gossling whom I recently watched in Half Nelson which I thought was amazing. I think his acting is some of the best about right now. Anyway, this film centers around Gossling's character as a Jewish Nazi. It's a paradox that gives the film some psychological intelligence. Basically this guy is on self destruct but he's externalised that self destruction into the outside world, using other jewish people as a means of getting at himself. At least that's how I interpreted it. Another one that has lots to think about.
