Which one?

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

Donnie Darko

I still need someone to explain this film to me.

 

[WhingForPresident]

I still need someone to explain this film to me.

That's the beauty of it, everyone perceives it differently, hence why its such a brilliant film.

 

[Gully]

I didn't get 12 monkeys...neither did any of the half a dozen or so people who I went to the cinema with, we were so confused that we had to go into a bar afterwards to drink copious amounts of alcohol to see if that helped us get the plot...from memory, it made no difference whatsoever.

 

[Pat McCrotch]

this one - Crash (2004/I)

 

[pishhead]

There will be Blood
Memento
Fargo
Man on Fire
Old Boy

The trick is to drink copious amounts of alcohol whilst watching it, it all becomes much clearer

Grave of the fireflies
