The Black Dahlia--Film Noir, got kinda long with who dunnit? but very satisfying.

Hollywoodland--good film noir, throw back to a good mystery. Complex parallel stories, well told.

Zodiac--Based on the actual files of the Zodiac Killer of the 1970s, very interesting movie. If you watch, please note the subtle ways the director shows the passage of time. Worth your time.

Flags of Our Fathers--Shows how the true story can get lost in the enthusiasms of the moment. Clint Eastwood wrote and directed this piece based on the flag raising @ Battle of Iwo Jima

American Graffiti-(for the 20th+ time, saw it with my parents in the theater circa 1974)-George Lucas’ breakthrough move, maybe because he co-wrote with 2 other people. in light of the Star Wars series rolleyes, may be his best work.
