		While "Finisterre" is likeable and listenable, it's all familiar, comfortable territory for a band which always seemed to enjoy sampling an eclectic diet of musical genres on its past albums.
		I expected Finisterre to be the album that would change the opinions of many who held previous Saint Etienne records in high regard.
		Finisterre has some great songs on it, but none of them manage to capture the spirit, atmosphere and emotion of previous efforts.

		Anyway, on the slate were Todd Solondz' Palindromes, Alexander Payne's Sideways, Hou Hsiao-hsien's Cafe Lumiere, Alejandro Almenabar's The Sea Inside and Nimrod Antal's Kontroll.
		Palindromes was my introduction to the very particular world of Todd Solondz and I came away much impressed by both the man and his film.
		I can see how it might be theoretically possible to make a film more unlike The Others than The Sea Inside but it would require a lot of dedication and hard work.
