Garden State
I just got back from watching Garden State with Alison... or is it Allison? Can I get it right?
I admit I hadn't heard of the movie before going to see it, and I was quite pleasantly surprised. Solid characters combined with excellent pacing and an interesting theme can make for some great cinema, and you'll find all three of those in this film. This movie is also proof that Natalie Portman can act, when given a good script. Definitely worth a view, if you haven't seen it already.
