Thought "The Life of David Gayle" was a good un too.

Re: Best Movie Of All Time.....
I thought it was on this thread that someone asked about a movie that you did not expect much from but turned out to be good.
Under this category would be 'Shadowlands' - especially relevant since it is about CS Lewis(Anthony Hopkins) and 'The Lion, the witch and the wardrobe' is out soon - guaranteed to have the girls reaching for kleenex.
