"SAVIOR'S SQUARE" IN SIGHT AND SOUND POLL

I just knew from Girish Shambu's blog about SIGHT AND SOUND POLL OF 2007. I'm glad many critics choose SYNDROMES AND A CENTURY as one of their most favorite films of 2007. I also notice some films I have never heard of, so I can add them to my film wish list.

CRITICS I AGREE WITH IN THE POLL:

1.Mark Le Fanu (Denmark) because he chooses SAVIOR'S SQUARE (2006, Joanna Kos Krauze + Krzysztof Krauze) as one of his favorite films.

2.Alexis A. Tioseco (Philippines) because he chooses AUTOHYSTORIA (2007, Raya Martin) as one of his favorite films.
