Marianne:

I bought right off the shelf No Country For Old Men and My Boy Jack.  
I bought them beause I'd heard how great No Country was, and My Boy 
Jack because Daniel is in it.

Other than that I rent before I buy.  Ballet Shoes was ok.  I 
wouldn't buy it.  I can't find Driving Lessons to rent locally, but 
from what you say about the movie I might buy it off Amazon.

No Country was exactly how I thought it would be.  Very, very 
violent.  My Boy Jack was not how I thought it would be.  I had a 
hard time seeing Daniel get killed. And in the end I blamed his 
father for his death.  I kept hoping for a happy ending.  Once I 
discovered the real story behind the movie I knew it couldn't be.
