Last night (Saturday night) we watched Dirty Pretty Things. It's categorized as a thriller -- I've never really been sure what that genre means exactly, but I don't think this quite qualifies, I think it's really just a drama. But in any case, it's really good.

The two main characters, Okwe and Senay, both have very compelling stories -- I wanted to know more of their back-stories and what happened to them next... Of course Audrey Tautou is wonderful, and Chiwetel Ejiofor is also great. I should see more of Audrey Tautou's films...

I think 'thriller' is like a horror flick, but without the gore. Still, the name is misleading. I, say, was thrilled with Anchorman, but that was no thriller. Well, it might have been for real anchormen.
