I found another dvd I would like to recommend: City of God
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0317248/
It is a brazilian movie about the poor street kids of a certain area in brazil and takes multifacet approach to telling it's story by telling the stories of different characters and how their lives connect. Very entertaining flick for those who don't mind subtitles ( may even have a dubbed track on dvd but i didn't use it). I know it has been out for a while but i just felt like watching it a couple nights ago, I now wish i had watched it sooner.
