<p>Gallipoli sucks, don't watch it.</p>

6

<p>I've seen Good Bye Lenin and Luther. The first one is a good movie in general; the second is more informative.</p>

7

<p>I second orchdorkbando on Good Bye Lenin. The movie is well done. I thought it gave a very good perspective on life in post-East Germany really well.</p>

8

<p>History of the World, Part One - everything you ever wanted to know about the Inquisition in one glorious Mel Brooks starring number. Additionally it touches on the finer points of the French Revolution. LOL</p>

9

<p>All Quiet On The Western Front!</p>
