Chin Kar-Lok, Liu Chia-Liang, May Lo Mei-Mei, Kim Won-Jin Martial Arts / Action/Adventure
We were very impressed with the fight choreography in this one. The "Scorpion Technique" in particular is a blast to watch, but every fight sequence is packed with ingenuity and creative moves you haven't ever seen before!

USA: 1923
Buster Keaton, Joe Roberts, Joe Keaton Comedy / Action/Adventure
Plot: In many ways a companion piece to "The General", "Our Hospitality" stars Keaton as a New York man who returns to his southern antebellum homeland to find himself embroiled in a longstanding feud between his family and that of the woman he loves.
Plot: For the first time ever, this documentary reveals the secrets of Former Fox news producers, reporters, bookers and writers who talk about how they were forced to push a "right-wing" point of view or risk their jobs.

In the tradition of "The Station Agent" and "Lost In Translation", this fish out of water story is both funny and touching. Director John Jeffcoat has created a truly special film here, and an incredibly nuanced portrait of India itself.
A visually beautiful film about a man's inability to forgive his wife for an infidelity, set against the backdrop of a rural China cholera epidemic with culture clashes between well-meaning Westerners and superstitious locals. Well worth a watch for period and romance buffs.
AKA: Romeo In Pyjamas; Romeo In Pajamas USA: 1931
Buster Keaton, Reginald Denny, Sally Eilers, Dorothy Christy Comedy / Action/Adventure
Plot: Jeffrey wants to marry Virginia, but she won't marry him until her older sister Angelica gets married off first. He then uses Reginald (Buster Keaton), a dim-witted man he has just met, to pose as a suitable husband.
This film has widely been considered the Holy Grail of martial arts films, due to its legendary reputation, its cast, and its unexplained obscurity on DVD. It is indeed an excellent film, though perhaps lacking somewhat as far as quantity of fight scenes. The clear highlight of the film is the fight between Sammo Hung and Lau Kar Leung--a fu fan's dream.
This movie's home-made feel is one of its strongest assets. And child actor Michael Baldwin gives an amazing performance, practically stealing the show from the rest of the cast.
This heart-breaking but cinematically brilliant portrayal of one man's struggle to survive the Nazi invasion of Poland is one of the most powerful films ever made.
Plot: While the kindly toymaker Geppetto sleeps, a blue fairy brings his beloved marionette Pinocchio to life, beginning a fantastic odyssey that will test the wooden puppet's bravery, loyalty, and honesty--virtues he must learn to become a real boy.
Though we're traditionally Tarantino fans and feel lukewarm about Rodriguez, "Planet Terror" was overall a lot more fun than "Death Proof", taking excess to new heights (or depths, as the case may be).
