“Little Children” and “Who Killed the Electric Car?”
December 3rd, 2006Two flicks to add to your Netflix queue:
I’ve been slacking on my plugs lately (and really, who hasn’t?), but I just wanted to get in two quick ones before I forget. Ana and I loved these two movies. “Little Children” appears to have already disappeared from theaters, but it’s the best movie we saw this year (that didn’t have “Borat” or “Departed” in the title) and it’s totally worth checking out. Also, unlike some movies I’ve seen recently (cough-runningwithscissors-cough) it was every bit as good as the book.
“Who Killed the Electric Car?” also came out recently, but made the jump to DVD even quicker. No idea why this one didn’t catch on like an Al Gore Powerpoint (I suppose the absence of Al Gore might have had something to do with it), but this documentary is every bit as good, if not better. No need to proselytize beyond that — though I know how much all of you cherish my lefty cinematic and political endorsements.
