From Poland, two very interesting films, "The Consul," and "Love Stories."

Miroslaw Bork's, "The Consul" is a hilarious satire, based on a true story, about a con man that cannot control himself (brilliantly played by Gustaw Lutkiewitz). If you enjoy E. European films, and God help you if you consider yourself a film buff and do not appreciate this region's singular excellence, you cannot miss this one. It is full of the Polish philosophy of affable cynicism, resignation to the baser instincts, but yet hope in better ones.
Yes, you've seen a Hollywood mega-production con man story starring Leonardo di Caprio, but here's a chance to see a superb film featuring an outstanding actor who can express more with his eyes than some millionaire superstars can with their entire twitching, winking, and grimacing faces.
"Love Stories," is directed by and starring Jerzy Stuhr, the wonderful "everyman" that played so well in, "Weather for Tomorrow." In this film, he portrays four very different characters, all experiencing the agonies of love in different ways, some of which overlap into each other.
