If not one of those five.. what others would you suggest.... the idea was that these are jus my preferences and for others to offer alternatives

Huite femmes, Zus en zo to name two good movies

quite enjoyed 'Huite femmes'

 

[Slagathor]

Mhm, the latter is a Flemish film which I quite enjoyed because I grew up near the Belgian border, I speak the accent and know the culture very well! I suppose anyone else would only find it mediocre...

 

[Respaul]

Never heard of that... i'll look out for it.

Also really liked ichi the killer this year but thought it probably innappropriate for award talk.

All ladies were great, but I hope a bit more that Julianne Moore - cuase I don't think she will win best actress award.

AND I hope that award for SHORT FILM (ANIMATED) will go to Polish guy Tomek Baginski and his movie THE CATHEDRAL :cheesy:
