An overview of the best movies in here.
Another documentary by the same author, Alison Murray. I didn't see this one yet but also seems worth it.
I didn't watch "Agora" but it seems to be a nice movie, rated 8.6 in IMDB. It was screened in Cannes earlier this year and it's causing some controversy in (fundamentalist) religious circles. Namely in some country inside Rome. I'm not sure what's their problem with it but reading the synopsis I think they probably have issues with every combination of adjectives you can imagine to describe the people in the love relation.
Also, as the main character is a scientist (she invented the hydrometer and the astrolabe), I'm looking forward to watch it because it's yet to come a movie that portraits how scientists work - No! A beautiful mind is not a good counterexample, daydreaming of patterns is not how cryptographers break codes!
Thanks to Alessio for pointing this out.
I've seen The Yes Men Fix the World and it's just hilarious. I'm also feeling pretty rebellious right now.
