Will be sure to watch it! I'm in a movie zone this weekend. Watched Atonement on Friday night (6/10; library scene 10/10) and am in the middle of Charlie Wilson's War - very good so far! Want to see There Will Be Blood next. DDL forever!

A girl in my neighborhood, Iranian, just old enough to remember the revolution, loved it. Don't know if I'll get to see it, 'cause I've also been in a movie zone: There will be blood (recommended) and Juno (wait for dvd).

Bina, where do you get these videos of current movies? Don't answer if it's incriminating. :)

From the local DVD shop. We have pirated copies of everything, two weeks after they come out in the US, and sometimes even before.

No County for Old Men - 2008-01-21 16:12:28
(Me, I had to pay nine bucks to see Atonement Saturday, but was impressed that the otherwise standard cineplex that I saw it at was playing all the movies mentioned above, plus No Country for Old Men. [Which I haven't seen yet, but the manager at the skatepark I'd been at said he has a copy he can loan me, and he even looked up the movie times for me on the internet, after checking the radar online to make sure it wasn't gonna rain later, so that I could come back after the movie, and all this despite the fact that he does not see fit to charge me admission. And I don't find such gracious treatment unacceptable, cuz it's kind of karmatic balance for some stuff that I've had to put up with in my own county, but now it actually looks like several people behind that may have to do some involuntary - and potentially very costly - Atonement....] [Not that I'm the suing type, but when a judge outright slanders you, and then twenty seconds later, tries to claim "I don't remember what I said... but I didn't say that", it seems like the civic-minded thing to do.] Regarding the movie Atonement, though, I wish British productions did not tend to confound sometimes sonicly hard to discern dialogue with depth... I kinda like to hear what they're saying all the time.)

they crack down on piracy pretty strongly here in Singapore (no surprise), but for our friends who moved here from Shanghai, there it was all about finding the cheapest copy of a first-run movie. An old friend who just visited is an intellectual property lawyer with the Library of Congress and was not happy to hear those reports. The buzzworthy movies are starting to arrive in the theaters here. We just saw Michael Clayton...what a fine film!

That was a good'un! You're in for some other great things if they are being released in roughly the same order over there...
