And the Oscar Goes To...

I want to recommend three great movies that I have seen in the last week. I am not going to write reviews but I will link to metacritic, where they all got great scores, 70 , 87 and 91 and you can read the reviews there if you want. The first one is the Science of Sleep, a quirky, beautiful film by Michel Gondry. This movie is worth seeing just for the visuals and the craftiness. The second is The Departed by Martin Scorsese. It's a little on the violent side but I loved it. This film is a remake of Infernal Affairs, and I don't generally understand why people remake films but this one is as great as the original, you should see both. Lastly, The Queen by Stephen Frears. Helen Mirren is so amazing in the title role, it is worth seeing this movie just for her performance. This is such a great time of year for seeing movies. Let me know if you have any recommendations.
