West vs East

So who makes better movies - west or east?
Let's see...

Started the film viewing day on Monday with this American film.
Liberal Arts.
Written, directed by and starring some guy from t.v. who stars on How I Met Your Mother (not the Doogie Howser/Brian Ryan guy) and Mary-Kate & Ashley Olsen's sister.
35 year old falls for 19 year old when he goes back to visit his college alma mater.
You get the drift.
Boring.
1/2 stars.


But then the evening got WONDERFULLY better because of...
This unbelievably beautiful and touching film.
Romancing in Thin Air
will
take your breath away.

Touching story that will bring you to tears.
Joy, despair, laughter, heartache, regret, hope, triumph.
Strong female character!
Absolutely wonderful.
Scenery (remote forest mountains of China I think) is gorgeous.
Acting is spot on.
It'll stay with you for a long time.
Do something for yourself - SEE THIS FILM.
5 stars.

So the verdict?
East - by a mile.
