Two Amazing Movies

I just happened to chance upon these two movies. They weren't my first choice, but they are probably the best movies I have seen in a long time!

Pan's Labyrinth is a Spanish movie (but see it with subtitles!). It is an excellent mix of fantasy and reality, and the most amazing story telling.



Freedom Writers Diary

Another Hillary Swank! She always manages to pick amazing movies and she makes me cry everytime. This one is about racial discrimination and what a high school teacher manages to do in the situation. Most people I know would have fled, or turned a blind eye to it, but not the protagonist of this movie - she takes up two other jobs ... Just watch the movie. A movie of courage and drive.
