3.  The Kid Stays In The Picture [DVD] [2003] DVD ~ Robert Evans

Donnie Darko [2002] [DVD]
5.  Donnie Darko [2002] [DVD] DVD ~ Jake Gyllenhaal

6.  Revengers Tragedy [2003] [DVD] DVD ~ Christopher Eccleston

7.  Roger and Me [1989] [DVD] [1990] DVD ~ Michael Moore
The list author says:
  "The liberal American that most yanks love to hate started it all off here; proof of consistent directorial skill rather than one-hit-wonder."

Wilbur (Wants to Kill Himself) [DVD] [2003]
8.  Wilbur (Wants to Kill Himself) [DVD] [2003] DVD ~ Jamie Sives
The list author says:
  "I left the cinema thinking that this Scottish film felt very Scandanavian. Sure enough, Danish director. Not perfect, but worth seeing for the good cast."

Girl With A Pearl Earring [2004] [DVD]
9.  Girl With A Pearl Earring [2004] [DVD] DVD ~ Scarlett Johansson
The list author says:

10.  Mighty Wind [DVD] [2004] [Region 1] [US Import] [NTSC] DVD ~ Christopher Guest
The list author says:
  "Very funny - the trailer got me hooked about a month before I saw it in the cinema. Still can't take folk music seriously as a result."

Ghost World [DVD] [2001]
11.  Ghost World [DVD] [2001] DVD ~ Thora Birch
The list author says:
  "Like DD, above, a cult film from that brief resurgence of genuinely free-thinking American cinema at the start of the century. This was one of many precursors to my interest in comix..."

The Dreamers Special Ed. - Dvd
13.  The Dreamers Special Ed. - Dvd 
The list author says:
  "I was frustrated by this one, but can't quite work out why. Perhaps it's because the 'I'm so beautiful and wonderful' attitude of the characters rubbed off on the rest of the production team?"

14.  The Barbarian Invasions [2004] [DVD] DVD ~ Remy Girard
The list author says:
  "OK, NORMAL LISTMANIA BEHAVIOUR FOR JUST ONE ENTRY - I BELIEVE THIS TO BE ONE OF THE FINEST FILMS OF RECENT YEARS. BUY IT QUICK, AND WAIT AT THE LETTERBOX FOR THE POSTMAN. IT'S THAT GOOD."

Kitchen Stories [2003] [DVD]
15.  Kitchen Stories [2003] [DVD] DVD ~ Joachim Calmeyer
The list author says:
  "Light and somewhat surreal, but clever in that it properly explores the way in which men communicate with and behave around each other."

Dogville [DVD] [2004]
16.  Dogville [DVD] [2004] DVD ~ Nicole Kidman
The list author says:
  "Hard work, although I was impressed by the way in which the film was made, effectively like a stage play. Did this, however, become too much of a gimmick? I dunno, but it's unique and wonderful."

17.  21 Grams [DVD] [2004] DVD ~ Sean Penn
The list author says:
  "A lightbulb will illuminate in your head when you grasp the unusual blending of different time periods. Another excellent 'alternative' movie from USA."

18.  Zatoichi [2004] [DVD] DVD ~ 'Beat' Takeshi Kitano
The list author says:
  "I'm obsessed with how things look, and this looked spectacular. Weighty acting and directing, and will entertain even those who can't stand this type of film."

20.  Truly, Madly, Deeply [DVD] [1991] DVD ~ Juliet Stevenson
The list author says:
  "If I were a woman, or even the opposite way inclined, I'm sure Alan Rickman would be the man to make my legs go weak. Tears will be shed, but it's a gorgeous picture. Watch it on your anniversary."
