The Killing Fields
A disjointed mess of a film that survived and struck a chord with me strictly because of the powerful and true depiction of what happened and the performance of Haing S. Ngor. The fact that he wasn't an actor but relying on feelings of his own suffering from the war was a beautiful and powerful thing to watch. It saved the movie for me.

A gorgeous pile of meh.

Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf
Well, there it is. That was the single greatest performance I've ever seen by an actress. Ever. Liz Taylor...you could win the Oscar for that role every single year. Amazing. The whole cast was amazing actually which is why they all got nominations and awards. It was like three incredible performances punctuated by a legendary one. Hell, all four of them should have won that year. Just incredible. I wouldn't be surprised if this film was the inspiration for Polanski's "Carnage" because they're almost one in the same but Woolf is so much heavier and just powerful. Really deep and profound film. Loved it.
Lynch/5
