    1. Let The Right One In
    A Swedish film about a 12 year old boy who is bullied and picked on at school. One day, late at night, he is met by a girl, around the same age as him. However, she is not your average 12 year old girl. She is afraid of the light, she craves blood, and she is unable to eat any type of actual “food”. She is a vampire, and the boy falls in love with her. The feelings become mutual, however the fact that she is a bloodsucking vampire causes implications in their relationship. A very good movie, and definitely worth the watch.

    The only one of these that I've seen is "The Counterfeiters," and it really is a great movie. It feel very genuine and sad, but it's still very interesting.

    Oh and thanks for the recommendations
