Es hat sich gelohnt (1999)
A hilarious short!
This funny short is worth seeing. It's beautifully photographed, and the actors were charismatic and charming. The director used great music to balance the humor. The actors made you really think that this was happening and the director made you feel like you were there as a casual observer. I suggest you see it. It's hard to find, but well worth the journey.
American Beauty (1999)
A sad, yet beautiful and often funny movie...(Possible Spoiler)
A sad, yet beautiful and often funny movie about a man who loves his family but isn't loved back. I can really relate to Lester (Kevin Spacey). Lester loves his family and his wife (Annette Bening) and daughter (Thora Birch) don't seem to want anything to do with him. In the end, he dies looking fondly at a picture of his family when his daughter is very young and that really got to me. Not to mention his last inquiry was about how his daughter was doing because she wouldn't tell him in a million years. Overall, I'd recommend this movie to anyone who likes great stories, great acting, beautiful cinematography, and real life problems brought into crystal clear view.
