I enjoyed Life is Beautiful ...

... A few holes that can be picked in it but very moving and very funny. Life is a Miracle is well worth a look: a really bizarre take on the Yugoslav wars - the director's Underground is similar, but probably better, worth seeing too.

A friend of mine has a theory about Maradona - that he sold his soul for his football talent and now he's paying the price. Strangely plausible, no?
