I wasn't the least bit shocked that I fell instantly in love with this film...but I continue to be surprised by its universal appeal.  It has me wondering if we arean't just that much more alike than we thought we were.

Nice screen picks there Smirnoff!

I love this soundtrack. Can literally listen to it on repeat. Showed this to the family and they all fell in love with it as well. Then only afterwards did I reveal that this was a film from across the pond and I had tricked them into watching a foreign film.

But they already knew that. Stupid accents.

(then newcomers) Nolan and Guy Pearce.

*cough* LA Confidential *Cough*

Pearce's performance is LA Confidential is pitch perfect.

Quite surprised by these last two.
