Foreign Film Suggestions

Tools    





I enjoy watching foreign films. It doesn't matter if it's Asian or European, as long as it's good. I'm open with any genre.

I enjoyed movies such as In the Mood for Love, Oldboy, City of God, Thoughts in Love, Amelie etc

At the end of his career, Kieslowski made his Three Colours trilogy. They're really great films.
They are – I haven't seen them for a while but Red was my favourite.



The Horseman On The Roof
Jean Du Florette and Manon des Source
Cyrano de Bergerac
The Return Of Martin Guerre
These are exceptional – Horseman and Cyrano are two of the most gorgeous films I've ever seen.



That's the name of a lingerie store here. Never knew there was a movie with the same name.

Goodbye, Lenin! (2003)
Das Boot (1981)
Das Leben der Anderen (2006)
Gegen die Wand (2004)
Angst essen Seele auf (1974)

I will read up on the movies mentioned, thanks!

Anyone ever see "Sbatti Il Mostro In Prima Pagina"? --- thinking about watching it, but most of the movies I've watched lately have been subtitled, and I like to see facial expressions, etc, so I'll probably watch an English speaking movie in a few minutes.. Not to mention if I need to do something for 2 seconds - my HDMI cable was kinda ruined by a friend, and when I mess with the laptop, hitting pause, barely touching it, the picture goes out.



Sleep Tight (spanish) A miserable janitor becomes obsessed with ruining the life of a young resedent.


The Secret in their eyes
(spanish) A police officer is called in to solve the mystery of a young murdered woman


The apartment (french) An obsession starts to keep two lovers apart-
