I loved Catch Me If You Can.  Very entertaining.  Hedwig and the Angry Inch, too.  And I'd love to see Junebug.  Thanks for reminding me, Victoria - I've been meaning to add that to my queue.

Here are a few that I've really liked recently and over the last couple of years that I think this crowd would enjoy.

Match Point

Dear Frankie

Almost Famous

Ruby in Paradise

The Station Agent

directed by Lasse Hallström, Robert Redford and Morgan Freeman...Good choice Brandon..really good under-rated film.  I think alot of folks gave it a pass because J-Lo's in it but she's good and the little girl Becca Gardner steals the whole damn thing  ;)

Glad to know that.  The DVD is still lying by my TV as I have not decided if I really want to see it for the exact reason (J-Lo).  I am looking forward to it now.
