Movies I need to see.

sadly, i've had no time to go to the theatre. the movies i want to see are not playing anywhere except for L.A., of course, and that makes it kind of impossible to see them, because of issues out of my control. :( well actually, there's one playing near me, but that's the one i could wait for.

1. Lola Montes: (Foreign) The film tells the tragical story of the life of Lola Montes who was a great adventurer and stopped being the attraction of her circus after having been the lover of various important men.

2. Happy-Go-Lucky: Poppy (Sally Hawkins) is a life-loving, irrepressibly cheerful, Pollyanna-type primary school teacher who is thirty years old, single, and infinitely optimistic and accepting. She lives with her best friend and flatmate Zoe (Alexis Zegerman) in London. She is tested by a repressed driving instructor with anger problems (Eddie Marsan), and tests him in turn. She has exciting flamenco lessons, an encounter with a homeless man, a row with her pregnant sister, and a love-affair with the social worker guiding one of her students.

3. Good Dick: A look at the relationship between a lonely introverted girl and a young video store clerk vying for her attention.

4. Rachel Getting Married: "Rachel Getting Married" is a contemporary "drama with an aggressive sense of humor" about the return of an estranged daughter to the family home for her sister's wedding. Kym's reemergence throws a wrench into the family dynamics, forcing long-simmering tensions to surface in ways both hilarious and heartbreaking. "Rachel Getting Married" paints a colorful, nuanced family portrait.
