I've watched The Quiet American last night, and I have to say that I really liked it. E didn't actually, for a number of reasons (of which I won't go into depth here), but I liked the story and the plot and I especially liked Michael Caine. It's an excellent film, with loads of good acting all around.

It also lends as an example to the "women screw up otherwise good friendships" theory, although I guess this film would be stretching this point.
