First, the one I've been anticipating the most for few months already. Because of the director and because of one of the cast. Those who know who they are don't need further explanation. Those who don't: No Regret (2006). Judging from the trailer, it looks like a tense movie. Let's hope it will be better than his latest Short!Short! I think I posted about this movie some time ago, but just in any case one more time^^... Ufufu.
