Funny how people are all of a sudden sociable when they want something from you. Sadly I'm not surprised. They can all go fuck themselves.

Saw L'Auberge Espagnole tonight featuring my long time crush Audrey Tautou. FANTASTIC movie, and it's not just because she's in it...ah who the fuck am I kidding.

d00d...way to sock it to him (show them Americans).

What makes that movie good? What sort of film is it?
leguerrier:
The film is French but 1/3rd of it is in Spanish, another 3'rd is in English, takes place in Spain where these 7 people share a huge apartment to make their studies in the country more economical. You've got a British, French, Danish, Spanish, Italian, Belgian living under the same roof and get a potent amount of culture all wrapped into one movie. A stark contrast to North-American movies they belt out these days. Although you can't ever generalize, they do come out with some great flics sometimes.

All in all it's a wonderful comedy/romance and you should see it. It's proof yet again that France is taking it's movies much more seriously, since Amlie and Asterix & Obelix Mission Cleopatre they've had quite a repuatation to uphold and I find they're doing it rather well. I'm sure we can see many more great movies like Amlie and this one to come.
