Nemo was a good one. plucky!

Didn't see Tarantino's.

Passed on gangs of NY, and by all acounts, + and -, this was a good choice.

I thought you liked the film?

Posted by Chaeron (Member # 744) on :

I just saw Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, and I loved it. Brilliant screenplay beautifully exectuted. I want to see it again.

Posted by GradStudent (Member # 5088) on :

Touching the Void was the most incredible thing I have seen in a very long time. And the scenery was incredible as well.

Posted by Human (Member # 2985) on :

Return of the King. It's a beautiful film, even in the battle scenes...wonderfully directed and all that.

Posted by KarlEd (Member # 571) on :

Big Fish was absolutly gorgeous. It was a strange and beautiful and touching tale with a nicely developed Tim Burton touch.

Posted by digging_holes (Member # 6237) on :

I'd have to say Return of the King too. I have issues with the scriptwriting, but Minas Tirith was just too breathtaking for words.

Posted by Jenny Gardener (Member # 903) on :

Whale Rider was lovely. And Return of the King, though its ending sucked, contained the most beautiful movie scene I've ever watched (the harrying of Faramir).

I didn't see many films this year, but I can pretty much garuntee the most beautiful film of all time is Barry Lyndon.

*Hums Franz Schubert's German Dance No. 1 in C-Major*

Lost in Translation was bizarre yet beautiful. Whale Rider was incredibly beautiful, if a little slow at times. 21 Grams was so ugly it went all the way around to beautiful.

Big Fish Big Fish Big Fish

Most beautiful films this year?

They're my top 3 - In America, Lost In Translation, and Return of the King.

Posted by fallow (Member # 6268) on :

Taalcon,

In america, not american splendor?

All of the 3 LOTR movies were very beautifully shot....I wish I could visit NZ at least once.

I really, really wanted to see Big Fish, but my wife didn't....soooo, needless to say that we didn't....yet. [Big Grin]

Posted by Alexa (Member # 6285) on :

Kill Bill, just because I think it had some of the most beautiful people in it, despite the blood and all.

Posted by Annie (Member # 295) on :

Tell her it totally qualifies as a chick movie.

edit: hee hee - that was to kwea
