3 IRON - *****,
A young guy spends his time breaking into houses and flats, on the front doors of which he had previously left flyers. (If they had not been taken off a day or two later, he assumed the owners were away). He spends a night or two in these places, tidying up and doing the laundry in lieu of rent. Things get interesting when a battered wife turns out to be skulking about her house whilst he does his thing.
A great film which manages to combine the real and the surreal. Despite being a bit clunky at times, it transcends itself (and it took me with it).
CRASH - *****,
Thought provoking, carefully assembled jig saw which explores relationships between ethnic groups, individuals and good and bad. Left me feeling for all the characters (as well as a bit for myself)!

3 Iron - golf film.
Crash - bang wallop (as in a drum kit - certainly nothing to do with any stage musicals!).
If you ever get round to seeing it you will see that 3 Iron is indeed a golf reference but no poncing around in funny clothes at the nineteenth hole here.
