The first one was the French "I've loved you so long" with Kristin Scott Thomas in a lead role which must have been amazingly fascinating to study and perform.
The inner strength and outer stigmatization of the main character Juliette and the almost chamber drama format and quiet approach with very strong dialogue combined to make this film a real experience.
The second one was very different - Israeli animated "Waltz with Bashir" exploring what happened in the 1982 invasion of Lebanon and the massacres at Sabra and Shatila. Making an animated documentary is a really interesting experiment, but the ends scenes can only be shown in documentary archive film, finalizing the feeling of a fist in your stomach.
Much can be said about both - I will refrain from further comment and say: go see it!
