Apparently documentaries are popular this year. Want to see: The War Tapes.

Plot Outline: Called up for service in Iraq, several members of the National Guard were given digital video cameras. This film, edited from their footage, provides a perspective on a complex and troubled conflict.

The movie website is here, btw.


Ever notice how top 10s of movie critics are those movies you never even heard of? This movie, released 3 weeks ago, isn't even playing in Houston, a major market (4th largest city in US). So how are we supposed to get these? I'll try downloading tonight but don't expect much luck. One of those, wait 6 months for the DVD, find it online on Amazon (maybe). Usually I just forget and never bother trying to see these supposedly great movies (which they probably are, my point is that the great movies don't have a wide enough distribution, while lousy movies staring Briney Spears and others are all over the place).
