Dear Brandon

I think I've come to respect some parts of Drive the more I write about it, e.g. the ending, the scene when Driver helps Irene in the grocery store parking lot. However, I still do not like it. It seems to me that a good actor and director obscure aspects of the film's story that I think are simple and poorly conceived. I just can't get on the same page as Jeff with this film. Worse, I can't even seem to read his page.

I probably won't write much more about The Skin I Live In, Le Havre or Tinker Tailer Solider Spy than I did earlier. All three are definitely worthy of spots on your list; however, the standout of the three, for me, was The Skin I Live In. I put it on the flash drive along with The Story of Film so that John and the Howard brothers have no excuse not to watch it. It will definitely be on my Top Ten.

Nostalgia for the Night is next in my Netflix queue.
