Movie Suggestions

I am in love with foreign film. Any suggestions for good raw cinematography. I am no prude, which I think is a requirement for foreign film buffs. Suggestions please? My most recent film that I watched was the cement garden and the dreamers

 

Dogtooth. It was recently released on netflix instant.

 

run lola run

the bicycle thief

thomas in love



all foreign.. i forget where the other two are from but 'the bicycle thief' is an old italian flick in black and white

 

Let The Right One In is pretty awesome and weird.

Mother is interesting too. korean i think?

 

Pan's Labyrinth (Spanish: El laberinto del fauno, "The Faun's Labyrinth")

A very heavy/sad movie, but well done, imo.

 

Best ones I have seen:
Let the Right One In - Swedish vampire movie

The Memory of a Killer - Belgian movie about an old assassin with Alzheimer's

An Affair of Love/Une liaison pornographique - a French film about two people meeting up for an undisclosed kinky sex act and developing more of a relationship over subsequent meets

 

run lola run, city of god, downfall, life is beautiful

 

holy shit, how did I forget Downfall - best Nazi movie, and maybe war movie, ever.

Also:
Intacto - this Italian movie about a secret organization that takes people with extreme luck (sole survivors) and has them do high stakes gambling (such as running across a highway blindfolded) and steals people's luck and stuff.

 

yea downfall was incredible

 

'das boot' as well if you got a few hours

 

Das Experiment is another one to check out if you like Downfall. Another German film that is similar stylistically.
This is a dramatization of the Stanford prison experiment, where things get a lot crazier.

And come to think of it, 'The Lives of Others' is another German film that just barely didn't make my first list. About a surveillance agent for the secret police getting a bit engrossed in the lives of a controversial playwright and his lover.

 

city of god and life is beautiful are two of my favorite movies

 

two great french movies from caspar noe, "irrevesible" and, "i stand alone."

 

amelie

 

How about this beautiful french film "Une liaison pornographique ",The alternative American tittle "An affair of love" It is NOT a pornographic film .

 

Yeah, Pans Labyrinth is one of my favourites



As for this neck of the woods, not quite what you would call foreign as they are in english, but the best Aussie film of the last decade was Wolf Creek IMO, but most aussie movies are shit

 

I forgot about Irreversible, VH2, if you say you are not a prude, watch Irreversible, then we'll see

 

Irreversible is one of the best movies ever
Enter the Void is one of the trippiest

 

tuvalu


very interesting movie.. very dream like!

 

Bliss,the Aussie movie from 20-25-years ago.

Wings of Desire,with Peter Falk.
