Knocked Up – Sean and I watched the uncut version, which I think means we got the raunchier version. (It’s sort of the same type of humor as American Pie.) It was funny though. Just pretend like you’re not an adult and that you are still in college and you won’t feel guilty for watching it. I cried it was so funny.
My Life as a Dog – This is a sort of coming of age tale. It is Swedish, so you have to read it. I thought it was okay, but it won and/or was nominated for several awards, so somebody out there must think it is really good.
Leila – SUCH A GOOD MOVIE!!! Again, you have to read it, it is Iranian. It is such a good story. A young married couple who is deeply in love come to find out that they can’t have children. The husband is the only son and if they don’t reproduce, the family line will end. His mother takes drastic measures to make sure the family line continues. It is a great movie for discussion and a real eye-opener as far as cultural differences.
