- With all due respect, it's been a couple of weeks now and I don't what was talked about.
04:15PM Them (Alamo Lamar 2) Recommened
- It's a French horror flick with the problem of presenting the conflict early on but not really giving a good reason as to way it's happening to this couple living in the country.
07:30PM Cashback (Dobie) Highly Recommened
- Thank god the British are not afraid of full nudity. I'm talking front to back and from underneath. That all being said, please do not shy away from this very well made film. I feel I might have already scared you away. Please have a read of the film's sysnopsis.
When art student Ben Willis is dumped by his girlfriend Suzy, he develops insomnia. To pass the long hours of the night, he starts working the late night shift at the local supermarket. There he meets a colorful cast of characters, all of whom have their own 'art' in dealing with the boredom of an eight-hour-shift. Ben's art is that he imagines himself stopping time. This way, he can appreciate the artistic beauty of the frozen world and the people inside it - especially Sharon, the quiet checkout girl, who perhaps holds the answer to solving the problem of Ben's insomnia.
