Elephant triggered Art Rant
Hey, somewhat of a rant, but I'm interested in hearing some of the opinions from people on here. I recently watched a movie called "Elephant" with my girlfriend.

Don't feel bad about it, Lost In Translation got several awards as well despite being as boring as Penny Arcade. -

[ QUOTE ] That seems to be a trend nowadays though, movies about people being awkward in relationships, or feeling alienated...lots of sitting in rooms where no one is talking and whatever they are fidgeting with is REALLY LOUD. [/ QUOTE ] I agree it's getting to be a cliche but one movie I thought did this really well was…
