Rubber

Last night, I headed to the "After Dark" series of the Portland International Film Festival to catch Rubber -- an English-language French film about an abandoned tire who, after becoming sentient, discovers that he has telekinetic abilities: so, he (his name is Robert) travels the country side making various animals and people's heads explode. It's also structured in such away that allows it to be incredibly contained and self-referential.
It's cute, "meta-," and "artsy" but thankfully stays just this side of entertaining so as not to be too cloy.
