Compared to 3-Iron, Broken Flowers is like the 3 Stooges. You hardly even need the subtitles. My favorite part (not a spoiler) was the "shadow" scene, but I'm not sure I really liked either of those films that much. 3-Iron at least had the distinction of being one of the weirdest films ever made.

I strongly recommend The Aristocrats, especially for the highly-refined among you.

Other rather esoteric fare might include:

Funny HaHa
Me and You and Everyone We Know (*****)
Ginger Snaps (best teenage werewolf film ever)
The Brown Bunny (but only if you can stand the idea of Chloe Sevigny with Vincent Gallo, and by 'with', I mean 'with')
The Assassination of Richard Nixon
Audition (very perverse in a funny kind of way)
I Stand Alone (*****)
Irreversible (this has a couple of incredibly shockingly violent scenes in it but is incredible film making nevertheless. Read eberts review of it.

As chance would have it, I've seen all the major oscar contenders this year with the exception of Capote which I hope to see this week. I'm predicting Crash for best pic. Enjoyed the Woody Allen film more than anything he's done in at least a decade.
