Favorite Foreign Film?

[Kakihara]

The past few years or so, I started drifting away from Hollywood flicks because I thought they were getting too redundant and unoriginal. I starting watching several foreign movies due to a friend pointing them out to me some time ago, and now I own a staggering amount of em. I'm not saying they're always better, but I often find gems here and there that remind me of why I like them so much in the first place. Anyway, what's your favorite? It can be anything from Children of Men to Drunken Master, or even Shaun of the Dead.

My favorite movie right now is Chanwook Park's Oldboy, btw.

 

[psychosully]

I loved Children of Men, very good. Letters from Iwo Jima is another good one.

Alines, Terminator 2, Die Hard.

That's probrably my least favourate Chanwook Park film. It distances itself from his other films whcih may be the reason it has done well financially in other countries than his other films.

L'auberge Espaniol and Amelie are my two favorites (they're both French films)
but if I had to pick one it'll be L'auberge Espaniol, very good movie

Amelie is great, but my favorite is Yamakasi, an amazing french movie all done with parkour. God i love it...

im sorry, but Hero was EXTREMELY overrated.

it had some of the most beautiful cinematography ive seen but it dissappointed me so much.
