It's also coming out on Blu-ray in Scandinavia a week before that.
My film of the year by far.  | |

I thought "There Will Be Blood" was 2007?
None the less it is a really really good film

I have one of those br's and heard of one other - but all the rest mean absolutely nothing to me (and not being a fan, I certainly wont be buying a Steve McQueen movie) | |

Hunger was one of the most boring films that I seen this year, I wouldn't watch it again if I was paid to.
