Let's have a thread for FOREIGN MOVIES!

name your favorites, ask people which ones are good, complain about the overrated ones, whatever! classic, obscure, anything. lets talk movies!

goodbye lenin!

in german with english subtitles. one of my favourite films ever. hilarious and sad and touching and a coming of age movie all at the same time. plus i love 20th century history so the post-cold war setting and the way in which different characters adapted to the new germany made it all the more interesting.

i really need to see this.


ive been watching a load of foreign movies lately, mostly spanish and french. and a couple of british. too bad some films are only on region2 dvd. i had to watch 'la haine' on vhs. a black and white film on vhs looks like MUD traveling down your screen

yeah, i saw that recently! i liked it, i wasnr expecting it would be so bittersweet. i spent a little bit of time in the post-wall east as a kid, and my family is from there. alot of the details as well as larger political concepts were familiar to me.

big appreciation for Japanese Horror movies... they kick the mainstream american movies' ass!
The Ring movies, Audition, Dark Water, The Grudge, Battle Royale etc etc
