Syriana (none / 1)
Saw it again (first time in englisch) two nites ago, and was struck by how good it was, AND how unbelievable it was that it got made.

Well that's partly due to Clooney's box-office appeal, which he uses to try to make/be in films he really wants to make - as with Good Night and Good Luck.

For anyone who hasn't seen it - a number of people complain that it is too complicated - just don't try to understand everything as you watch, some things you've just seen become clear some time later in the film.

Maybe it's because I'm a Londoner - that I moved to Nice.
