Ballad of Narayama by Kinoshita. Easily one of the best films I have ever seen and will ever see. Pure poetic brilliance.
"In feudal times, in a remote impoverished mountain village in Japan, those who reach the age of seventy are ushered to the top of the nearby sacred Mount Narayama, the abode of the gods, and are abandoned there to wait until they die. This tale tells of the kind-hearted peasant granny, Orin (Kinuyo Tanaka), who is prepared to make that pilgrimage in the coming new year, the traditional time of the Narayama festival, when she reaches that magical age. But before doing her duty, Orin wants to sort out the affairs of her troubled family. When a messenger comes to her village and tells her there's a recent widow in the next village, Tama-yan (Yűko Mochizuki), who is the same age as her widowed adoring 45-year-old son Tatsuhei (Teiji Takahashi), they immediately arrange a marriage and granny feels she's ready to leave the world. Living with granny are her three mean-spirited grandchildren and the pregnant wife of the vile (Danko Ichikawa), who can't wait for Orin to exit so the family of eight can divide up her share of the food. in the meantime the grandchildren mock granny because she still has all her 33 teeth (seen as devils teeth in old humans), which she becomes ashamed of and finds a way to smash them. When the time arrives, the heartbroken loyal son carries mom to the mountain top and finds it's an auspicious sign that it snows just when they reach the top"

"everything illuminated"
Norwegian, the movie was good but the book was even better.
I'm reluctant to see "Extremely loud and incredibly close" though. The book was so wonderful I'm afraid the movie will be disappointing.
We got "Buck" from Netflix. It's a documentary about a horse trainer. But you don't have be interested in horses to love this film. Buck's story and the way he has lived his live are wonderful. He was severely abused as a child yet made the choice to follow a path of kindness and humor. Highly recommended.

Hey Werner,
Watched Hugo last night in 3D. Pretty cool.
Life of Brian - That was a fun one. The religious satire is great. I like the part where he falls out of the tower and goes for a ride with aliens before they crash back in the village where he fell. And he survives.
The two bystanders who witnessed the whole thing say "lucky bastard".

This past weekend...
Rum Diaries... eeh... not a complete waste of time. A great line or two here and there but otherwise no big thrill.
The Debt... best spy thinner I have seen in a long, long time. A great movie.
