Brick

OK - thought about putting this in 'last movie seen' which it is but since no one ever responds to those posts - i thought i'd recommend Brick here.

Brick is a very indie film with some great acting and an amazingly well put together plot. shot on DV but it retains an amazing sense of editing and atmosphere (tough to pull off, but well done here)

the film is a 40s noir plot set in a modern day high school (complete with cliques, tough guys, and lots of drugs). somehow the filmmakers manage to pull this off without it being a parody - although there are many funny bits and its not played completely straight or realistic.

anyway, i thought it was really slick and fun and smart and wanted to recommend it to HDCers as a really cool non-horror film
