Amélie (Le Fabuleux destin d'Amélie Poulain) 2001, R)
my all time favorite, an unique movie with a magical atmosphere, great colors and the perfectly fitting music by yann tiersen. somehow this movie has the power to make me feel better about myself and my life. everyone should be a little more like amélie. |

Mulholland Drive 2001, R)
for me this is a dream captured on film. it doesn't have to make sense in every detail... unlike "lost highway" it's very entertaining with a brilliant atmosphere. I will have to watch it a third time soon, to collect some more pieces of the unsolved puzzle. |

Into the Wild 2007, R)
The amazing cinematography is breathtaking. This movie aims right into the heart of anyone, who has ever felt the urge to break away but lacked the courage to actually do so. |
