- Neverlost Really fascinating mind-bender thriller following a man caught between two world of the current and memory, questioning which is the better one of the imperfect choices. Very impressive performance by Ryan Barrett in the main role, & strongly recommend to speculative fiction fans (not currently available on amazon.com).

- Melancholia This film by Lars von Trier won me over with it's artistic vision, fantastic performance, and amazing fusion of the bizarre & the beautiful. One of my faves of 2011 (US price on Amazon.com is a STEAL at $13.49).
- My Week With Marilyn Michelle Williams stars as Marilyn Monroe is this curious biopic that follows her and Laurence Olivier (played by Kenneth Branagh) though the eyes of his employee (played by Eddie Redmayne). Recipe for awesome that I need to see.
- The Son of No One Channing Tatum stats in the cop/crime film centred on a now-adult trying to lead a quiet family life after growing up in the projects.
- Happy Feet 2 The dancing penguins return in the animated sequel.
- Young Adult stars Charlize Theron as a woman who returns to her home town to woo her high school crush, even though he's married with kids. Also stars Patton Oswald. I really want to see this one.
