Shall We Dansu?: This is a Japanese movie, if you've ever seen the movie Shall We Dance? it's a remake of this one. This movie is about a Japanese man who takes up ballroom dancing (I don't know if this still holds true but when this movie was made, ballroom dancing was a social taboo.) It's a sweet and funny movie. I absolutly love it.

Good Night and Good Luck: This movie is about events that took place during the dark time of McCarthyism and communist witch hunts. Edward R. Murrow was a well known journalist and he had a tv news show called See It Now. For those who don't know about this period, it was the cold war and an insane period in history, the US was deathly afraid of communism and Senator Joseph McCarthy was in charge of a committee on un-American activity, basically accusing people of being communists. Most of the people that were accused were not communists and were accused and convicted with insubstantial evidence. People were terrified of the chance that they could be called up before the committee, carrears were ended or damaged at the suggestion that a person was "red". Anyway Edward R. Murrow and his team had the guts to stand up to Senator McCarthy and the injustice of what was going on, this movie tells that story. I think this is a very inspiring story.

Some Like It Hot: I love this movie, love it! To musicians witness a fictionalization of the St. Valentines Day massacre and to make it out of town alive they go into disguise and join a girls band headed for Florida. Tony Curtis and Jack Lemmon are hilarious in this movie as they see what life is like for the other half. Marylin Monroe makes it hard for the guys to remember that they're supposed to be girls with humorous results.
