Life of Brian

When this film came to distribution in 1979 it was a scandal because of it was dishonoring the Church. Today it is considered to be a very funny parody on life of Jesus Christ. Brian was born the same day as Messiah and many people mistake him for Jesus. By doing this many absurd situations take place. Main protagonist joins Jude movement to free his homeland from Romans occupation.

Smoke

Group of several people lives in New York City. Their lives are connected because of a small shop with cigars owned by their friend Auggie (Harvey Keitel). This group includes a writer that cannot write, teenager from street that tries to find himself, Auggie’s ex-girlfriend and others. Critics and the audience welcomed the untypical humor of the film as well as its wit and amazing performances by all actors and actresses.

and not to forget:
Gerri's Game before every film screening as a "journal".
