    I'll give the Canadian favourites (or: favorites, depending how you want to spell it)

    You must see:

    "The Red Violin" with Samuel L. Jackson ( A Canadian movie) Many twists and turns, with an excellent story line.

    "Malena" with Monica Bellucci ( An Italian movie) The comment on society in this one is very interesting. Anyone who thinks beautiful women have it made, this will change your mind.
