time again for the longue durée?

As far a culture goes, my current attention span and level of insight roughly correspond to the three-and-a-half minutes of Uffie’s soon-to-be mega-hit A.D.D. S.U.V.

But what if you are among the patient few for whom movies still hold a promise? Here are some suggestions to rekindle (or should that be de-kindle?) your interest:
You delight in classical Hollywood romcom narratives: Bandits (2001) and Intolerable Cruelty (2003)
You can tolerate German New Wave and its heirs: Die Innere Sicherheit (2000), Halbe Treppe (2002), and Gegen die Wand (2004)
You savor highbrow Euro existentialism: Hable con Ella (2002) and Nuovomondo (2005)

And for a mischmasch of these three styles, perhaps this will work: Adaptation (2002)
