You need to watch the original Manchurian Candidate Beast, the Denzel Washington one is a crappy remake.

I second E46's American History X, Edward Norton will blow you away, it is such a powerful movie.

Saw a Good Women this weekend, it was good, Helen Hunt and Scarlet Johansson, based on Oscar Wilde's Mrs. Windermere's Fan. If you like Wilde, you'll like this. :)
