Alright, so last night I watched "American Beauty" for the first time and I was blown away, I couldnt even sleep that night. One of the best and most beautifully directed films I have seen in a long while, a must have for the collection.

It's not a perfect movie, but I stumbled out of the theatre when I saw American Beauty, thinking about the world a little differently. The only other film that ever did that to me was Blade Runner and that was more of a slow burner that has eventually become my favourite film.
if anyone hasn't seen either of these films, please see them and tell me what you think.
