Different language Different Genre

5. Ma femme est une actrice (French) [My Wife Is An Actress] (5.5/10)
A "normal" guy who is married to a hot actress gets worried that she is involved with her costar. This worry turns into jealousy and causes problems in their relationship. This is a story about trust and a comedy about the actions between men and women. They tried to show the movie in a comic style but it was just strictly ok. They could have dealt with more pros and cons.

4. The lookout (6.5/10)
Chris, whose once-bright future has been dimmed by a severe head injury because of an accident, is a night janitor at a bank. Lonely having just one blind friend and frustrated, Chris falls prey to a con man’s seductive promise of romance and a better life, and agrees to help rob the bank where he works. What happens before and after and how he deals with his disabilities makes for a very interesting watch. Beautiful performances by everyone.

3. Dosar (Bengali) (7/10)
Yet another beautiful film by Rituparno Ghosh With an awesome and beautiful performance by Konkona Sen Sharma. This girl never stops surprising me. Shot in b&w, the story is about this husband who gets into an accident and in the process the wife finds out hat he was cheating on her. How she deals with the whole situation makes the crux of the film. The emotions Konkona portrays of a betrayed wife but still being very strong is just unbelievable.
