Always great to see a trusted critic's list, Ms Wonga. I too really liked Tell No One, a nice French and American partnership. Just saw the solid Man on Wire doc an hour ago--nice work by the Brits and French. On the other hand, I just could not buy into In Bruges--after the guy fell hundreds of feet from a tower and then gave a short speech before dieing, I'd had enough. Thanks--you've given me six new movies to track down and see. Cheers!
