I couldn't agree more. I love movies but your right, people underestimate what other countries are actually capable of, and I think British movies are much more realistic. You take a punch you have a nose bleed, you get shot, you probably die or crawl around with your innards hanging out and blood on the pavement, and the gun was only shot once (sorry to be graphic).
You watch a hollywood movie, they have to unload twelve magazines before anyone is actually shot, and thats only in the leg and then the victim keeps running! LOL. I can totally see where Cuaron is coming from.
I really have alot of respect for Brad Pitt, he recognised this and played a fantastic part in Snatch because he loves British movies (was directed by Guy Ritchie), amazing movie but it is an 18!
Cuaron is very cool, I like this man because he is real, loyal and dedicated to making movies and not just money, and I pray he directs OOTP!
