Michiko to Hatchin (2008)
Tarantino-style Animation
I'm not into romance animes/movies/books. I discovered "Michiko to Hatchin" by mistake, while searching for something completely different.
First, the animation is great. For me it was as close to a movie as something can be - not talking emulation or 3D, but in terms of gestures and dialog.
The storyline - you know where it is going, you pretty much have an idea of how it will end. But this is the beauty of this particular animation: it keeps you wanting to watch it until the end. You begin to care about the characters.
Soundtrack - background music is there when it should be and it adds to the story.
I couldn't stop watching it.
I definitely recommend it.

Shocking Reality
If you need a more shocking documentary than the ones on Discovery, National Geographic or Reality, try out this movie. I guarantee you will get more than you have bargained for. I simply watched the movie out of curiosity and I was profoundly shocked by the story. Maybe you are shocked because you know it is not a story, but because you know that these things really happened. Mungiu really nailed it down. I would even dare say that if you liked "Lost in Translation" you would definitely like this one.
I'm not a fan of Romanian movies (honestly, I didn't like too much the late ones), but this one grabbed me. A must see foreign movie.
