Pi's great. I love it for the same reasons. Starved of budget and left with no alternative but to be creative. It's often the best way to try and make a film (the hard part is trying to convince anyone willing to put small amounts of money into a movie that you can do it for so little. I've literally seen it before where films with too low a budget fail to get the funding they require because they`re not asking for enough money. This is a particularly stupid British thing come to think of it. It's no wonder few decent British film's ever get made).

Glad you're going to give The Fountain a second chance in the cave.... I was right about Casino Royale so I demand to be proved right again.... smile
