"The Lives of Others" - Beautiful and deeply sad.
Frost/Nixon - I found it absolutely captivating. That's partly about learning more of an era when I was oblivious (at 4) but when there was so much happening...Vietnam, Watergate, leisure suits.
"Blood Diamond"
"Breach"
"Norbit" (I admit, a lowbrow binge)
"The Little Dog Laughed" - Julie White is exceedingly brilliant, author Douglas Carter Beane is a genius
How to Live in Small Spaces by Terence Conran - too bad he doesn't say how to pay for gorgeous renovations of small spaces
Queen of the Underworld by Gail Godwin - surprisingly autobiographical and enjoyable
The Kite Runner - devastating, if we could all write first novels like that...
