My god you guys, practically every movie that gets nominated/wins the GG/Oscar foreign language film award makes me sob my heart out. I mean Osama, The Kite Runner, Jacob the Liar, The Diving Bell and the Butterfly, Life is Beautiful?
Please don't get me started on Life is Beautiful. I can't even think about that movie without tearing up.
Also, anyone know of a recent movie that's probably based in Afghanistan (or in that area), where it ends with the family traveling out of the country and the father (I think) asks a young boy to recite something? And the boy recites a famous Rumi poem? I can't find the exact poem on wikiquotes and I really want to see the movie. IF ONLY I COULD REMEMBER THE NAME OR SOMETHING USEFUL, COME ON BRAIN, JEEZ!
