Kon Tiki: This was on the list of International Cinema movies for the semester and it sounded interesting. The film was listed as Norwegian (which it is)(as was a lot of the crew of the expedition) and so I assumed that the film would be in Norwegian and I'd be watching with subtitles, I was surprised when I found that the film was made in English (which was nice because reading subtitles isn't really anyone's favorite I would guess). I guess it makes some sense in this day in age, so many Scandinavians speak great English and it gives the film a wider market. Anyway it was a really good film, I don't know that much about the Kon Tiki voyage and so I couldn't say how historically accurate the movie is but it is really good. I was kind of ridiculous actually, as a historical event I knew roughly how the movie would end but the movie got so intense at one point that I had to stop for a little while. I really recommend seeing it, you'll learn something, it's beautifully filmed and just an all around good movie.
