Here they are. While I hate it that SHADOW OF THE VAMPIRE didn't win. (But Then... It wasn't In Competition dagnamit!) I have to admit that that was the only one I saw and I now know I must see the rest of the field. DANCER IN THE DARK sounds like it must not suck. And anything from WOng Kar Wai or Neil LaBute is a must. Here's the list:
