The Wind that Shakes the Barley
Set in 1920s Ireland just before the peace treaty with Britain. Two brothers divided within the IRA. Its not one of those movies you watch with a bunch of other movies. Its just too powerful. Great performances and gut wrenching scenes of oppression.
9/10
The Lives of Others
Set in East Germany during the Cold War. Stasi officer monitors the lives of two artists and becomes personally involved in their lives risking his own career in the process. Surprisingly predictable but worth the watch. Subtitled.
7/10
