Salmon Fishing in the Yemen (2011)
A pie in the sky dream is embraced by political forces. This was a great watch! Humor, Politics, Romance, Action all rolled up in a nice burrito for the adult movie goer. The first 2/3rds of the film has a lot of easy to relate to humor, especially if you are politically savvy. The last 3rd a nice bitter sweet romance that comes around in a Some Kind of Wonderful (1987) style finish. These kind of movies seem to get lost in the noise these days, a shame too because this really is brilliant film making. If you want to give dick and ass humor a break and would like some nice smooth entertainment that appeals to your higher brain functions this would be a top shelf pick. I haven't been moved by drama like this since Never Let Me Go (2010) except I was smiling instead of sobbing at the end. Highly Recommended.
