Suggest me two movies to buy...
« on: February 09, 2007, 02:18:08 PM »
ONLY TWO.

and you have to give me a link to where i can purchase it.

I'll tell you what i already own, even though some of the other people that frequent the movie threads know most of what I own. 

Let's do this.  I'm looking to branch out and check out new movies/genres.

Also give me a short description of the movie and why it's great, please.

Helena, a 15-year-old girl in a family of circus entertainers, often wishes she could run off and join real life. After a fight with her parents about her future plans, her mother falls quite ill and Helena is convinced that it is all her fault. On the eve of her mother's major surgery, she dreams that she is in a strange world with two opposing queens, bizarre creatures, and masked inhabitants. All is not well in this new world - the white queen has fallen ill and can only be restored by the MirrorMask, and it's up to Helena to find it. But as her adventures continue, she begins to wonder whether she's in a dream, or something far more sinister.

I have that one.   :-[  I love that movie.  The scene where he's dreaming that his wife comes to visit him and the lion attacks her.  That was a little disturbing when I first saw the film years ago.  Probably Val's best film.

Thanks for the suggestions MAF.  I'm REALLY interested in the second one.  You've told me about it before.
