I am. I think it is a masterpiece. However I do not have list of top 10 movies as of now. [/b][/quote]Good to hear. It was just so moving and beautiful. It is the only movie in which I've ever actually been shocked by. It's the only film to ever make my jaw literally drop. I found myself very involved in the viewing of this film. I think it is the best movie of the decade.

Yes. I totally agree. Have you seen Pi yet?
The book will probably be the next I read, once I am finished with the two current books I am working on.

No. I just checked imdb about it, seems interesting. [/b][/quote]It's not as good as Requiem, but very interesting, especially if you enjoyed Aronofsky's directorial choices on Requiem. I'm also excited about his new film he is working on. The premise sounds interesting, to say the least. There were also rumors a few years back about him adapting Chuck Palahniuk's novel Choke, a book I absolutely adore, into a feature-length film, which is something I'd of loved to see. But I think he dropped that project a while back.

I just wanted to meantion two filmes that came out last year: "Munich" and "Capote". Both awesome films, "Munich" is one of the greatest works from Spielberg.

I love Requiem's editing; a rapid, rhythmic, almost addictive conjuring of hallucinatory drug effects. Other than that, I much prefer Pi, which sticks with a protagonist I adapt to (Requiem is full of junkies I don't care for), a pulsating soundtrack, and lovely, black-and-white cinematography. There's a split second I remember vividly, where Max stars at a mirror, then begins to drill a hole into his own skull. We cut away, but the sound resonates still, and it's been a year since I saw it.
