LADY IN THE WATER (2006)

M. Night Shyamalan's strange, little film definitely gets better with repeat viewings. When first released, I saw it in the theater with my son and wasn't quite sure what I thought. I was unaware of the original origin of the story, so it seemed a bit weird. I thought parts were very interesting, but feared one of my favorite modern filmmakers may have gone too far.

After seeing it again recently on DVD, I'm starting to enjoy it very much. This is a film that needs to be watched on a different level. Taken as a fantasy, there are some really neat images and moments. Paul Giamatti is excellent in the lead and shares several touching scenes with Bryce Dallas Howard. James Newton Howard once again provides a moving score.

I haven't seen any of M. Night Shyamalan's films yet. I think I remember trailers for one about a village in the woods or something, it looked creepy. What would be a good film to start off with, Lunk?

I'd recommend either SIGNS (2002) or THE SIXTH SENSE (1999). Those 2 are my favorites. I also like THE VILLAGE (2004) - probably the one you're thinking of with that trailer. His films are generally light on special effects and feature more character driven stories, some of which remind me of the original TWILIGHT ZONE style. Neat stuff - plus, he makes his films in and around Philadelphia, which is especially interesting for me.
