Movies?

[mazzie]

So, I finally joined Netflix.

For some reason, since I moved to DC (almost 3 years ago) I really haven't seen too many movies. I've seen so few, in fact, that the selection at Netflix is rather overwhelming.

So, what do you recommend? Is there anything I just have to see? What movies did you really enjoy in the last 3 years? I'm trolling especially for good writing and indy films but welcome all suggestions.

(I have, to my credit, seen the LotR trilogy. :))

I like the tingle that warm bourbon leaves in my lips, but sometimes it's a bit too much to swallow. Something to be said for savoring each gentle sip, though.

I'm a flexible girl. Maker's is usually what I have on hand, but I'm also a fan of Woodford's, Bookers, Blantons ... any number of delicious bourbons. I don't go the scotch route, though. I've never been able to get past the smokiness - which my tastebuds interpret as plastic, for some reason - enough to enjoy it.

Hmm...all scotches? I know some of the Islay malts are too peaty for me, but some of the lowlands are all heather and nut tones, not so much smoke. Ever been to a tasting?

All scotches that I've tried. A German friend of mine was rather put out when he took me out to disprove my claim that I disliked scotch and spent a good deal of money only for me to wrinkle my nose and say "Yuck. Band aids."
I've never been to a tasting, but I'd definitely give it a shot. Sweet amber poisons have been good to me so far.
