I am sure most haven't heard of the movie "Paradise Now", but I watched it last night on DVD and it was a great movie. It's filmed in Arabic and it's about 2 would be suicide bombers who have to go to Tel Aviv. It's quite an eye opener how different things are in the Palestine area compared to Isreal. It was quite the culture shock for me when I was watching the movie. They showed the neighborhoods in the West Bank and area and you can tell they are very poor and then they showed Tel Aviv. Big Samsung billboards, designer shopping areas, fancy cars, girls in bikinis...
And the acting, I thought was brilliant. You guys have to check out this movie.
