I'd be remiss if I didn't say something about Tell No One, which I saw last night.

Very basically, a guy gets an email from his wife, 8 years after she died under mysterious circumstances. From there, the film is a winding, confusing (and sometimes needlessly complex) journey to find out what the hell is going on. The director does a masterful job shooting this film, and not a single moment of the movie is extraneous or unresolved at the end. If you're someone who likes to guess at the movie before the end, you need to pay attention to every single detail.

I think the French are just better at making thrillers than everyone else, because every time I see one, I come out of the movie riveted, excited and happy that I saw the film.

Very high recommend.
