Movie plug -- Nowhere in Africa 

Last night, I watched Nowhere in Africa, the German movie directed by Caroline Link that won the Oscar for best foreign language film this year. The movie is set in the late 1930's-1940's and tells the story of a German Jewish family that escapes Germany in the nick of time and finds a home on a farm in remote Kenya. Though its one of those movie thats not easily reviewed (you simply have to watch it), I think Roger Ebert does a fair job. Once again, highly, highly recommended.
