(I am a big fan on non-Hollywood movies, that is not mainstream commercial so that adds up my positive feedback).
Escape from the Liberty of Cinema is a pure satirical and amazing creativity from the director, I am amazed that the movie was made way before video conference was possible. I like the Woody Allen style or shall we call it a very 'different' screenplay. I get the humour of the movie so I enjoyed thoroughly, also its very comedic yet quite dark in nature.
The Promised Land, at first I was impressed by the main actor Borowiecki (stage name), Mrs. Zucker was a pure drama queen that make me detest her yet entertain me in one go. I like the story plot of industrial period of the 19th century and I think it can be educational for some study. I think the movie brought out the negative side of humanity in real sense yet coveted by the pure drama of lives. I like the fact that there is a cross-mixing usage of language ( German and Polish depending on whose identity in the story plot). The last few mins plots of some sort of revolution keep the mind roaming even after the movies end.
