Recent films
Saw these two films, both centered around sex but in vastly different ways. Both are way above your average film in every way and their low-level topical messages are skillfully conveyed. Yet that alone isnt enough. In the company of films in this above-average calibre both seemed (atleast to me) to lack that je ne sais quoi gut-level oomph that separates the good from the amazing. I'm going to leave it at that.
Kinsey (2004)
La mala educación (Bad education) (2004)

Bernal who plays the lead role is brilliant. You should see him as Che Guevara in 'The Motorcycle Diaries.' Apparently Che was a fascist pig but Bernal makes you forget all that. At least for 2 or so hours.
Yup, Bernal was very good (though I was kind of surprised to see a Mexican actor in a Spanish film). I havent seen Motorcycle diaries but did see Amores Perros where he was really good too.
