Guns: LOL... Of the movies I listed, Closer and Garden State should be available on any decent DVD store as they really were high profile affairs. Hard Candy won't be out on DVD for atleast 2 months more. Do catch them if time permits! Jedi: Yes, Zach Braff is an absolute revelation. Ditto my views on Closer. Catch up Hard Candy ASAP if you are game for something different. Would love to know your op on it. Cheers! Karan. Hey thanks a lot guys for all the comments!

I couldn't have summed up any better or so eloquently. The thing that strikes me about Garden State is Zach Braff. What a great directional debut? I must admit I didnt have a great opinion of him knowing him from that over-the-top Scrubs show. Natalie Portman is wonderful. Yes, I too absolutely loved her character. Closer. I thought it was a bit exaggerated in the name of 'reality'. In parts I found it ...mm tasteless. But on the whole didn't mind it I guess. Hard candy-- I havnt been able to make up my mind. Well, football matches are to be part blamed for it as well :P But i'll see it sometime this week. You have motivated me enough. Keep up the great work! <b>jEDI</b> Excellent Karan!

They arent available anywhere. Do you know someplace where I can get any conceivable movie ever released? Crossword and Planet M in Pune suck bigtime. They never have the rare movies that I want.
