Re: Your Favorite Non-English Movies?

I don't watch foreign movies and I doubt anyone could name 25

Re: Your Favorite Non-English Movies?

I guess you're "new" then, and haven't been paying attention.

Re: Your Favorite Non-English Movies?

Nice choices..

Since you've seen "Eyes Without A Face" I must ask if you've seen "The Face of Another" (it was made a couple of years after.. very similar, directed by Teshigahara, who made his bones with "Woman in the Dunes")

All good movies. Tried watching the first and last on your list. I can't seem to watch Musicals, and lately, if I don't like the first 30 minutes, chances are almost absolute I won't like the movie overall, but if I invest even 30 minutes, I try to finish it, considering how much time I hate wasting when it comes to movies (and anything really).

Re: Your Favorite Non-English Movies?

I mean all Fassbinder films are similar and all worth watching. Ali is the one that stands out though.
In general I don't like musicals either, but Jacque Demy '60s films are an exception. I mean I don't see Umbrellas of Cherbourg as a musical; it's a regular film, but all the characters sing the dialogue.
Oh yeah, I've got another one:
Quo Vadis, Aida (2020) about Srebrenica:


Mean people suck.

Re: Your Favorite Non-English Movies?

Yes, the singing of dialogue was a bit too much, so I didn't stick around for the movie.

Fassbinder's movies definitely have a "feel" - he made 3-4 in a year! Many times, using the same acting troupe.

Re: Your Favorite Non-English Movies?

Blue Is The Warmest Colour (2013)

Godzilla (1954)

Re: Your Favorite Non-English Movies?

One of the most exciting films ever made:

Re: Your Favorite Non-English Movies?

I'm not sure if I've seen it. I remember recording it years ago, and know the story, but not sure if I saw it all.

Re: Your Favorite Non-English Movies?

I suggest you put it on your 'to watch' list.

Re: Your Favorite Non-English Movies?

Re: Your Favorite Non-English Movies?

It's not a caper at all! Sacrilege!

Re: Your Favorite Non-English Movies?

Convinced!

I'll watch it the second it's available. I'll set an automatic recording for this director.

Thanks!

Re: Your Favorite Non-English Movies?

If you type in these movies on the SEARCH, you might be able to find some.

If they don't have subtitles, you can download those and sync them together
