Favorite Foreign Movie

[Desperado_1955]

Ugandan Action Film "Who Killed Captain Alex". Destined for a gold statue, IMHO

I wish more of the movies in this thread were on Netflix.

I'm sorry...when I saw this thread and the words "favorite foreign movie", my mind immediately went to Steely Dan and "Peg".

Amelie
Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon

Amelie
Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon

Great one. By any estimation.

Anyone seen Brotherhood of the Wolf? Monica Bellucci is in it so that helps also.

 

[Lexie's Dad]

I've always seen that movie called "The Professional", never knew it by that name.

And I came here to say, "Strange Brew" because I'm low brow on movies for the most part. I watch them to relax and be entertained, if they make me think too much then I'm not relaxing.
