Well, all foreign *language* films do. Unless you can speak
that language and import them.

Or something.

it sounds weird but according to the teacher any non
american movie is a foreign movie
also it has to be a non english speaking movie

Ahhhh, I get you now. Well, from your point of view any
non-American movie would be foreign. There's a difference
between 'foreign' and 'foreign language'.

Movie-Director(nationality)
Element of Crime- Lars von Trier (Danish)
Le Samourai- Jean-Pierre Melville(French)
Kanal- Andrzej Wajda(Polish)
Stalker- Andrei Tarkovsky(Russian) (really long,
philosophical movie)
Aguirre, The Wrath of God- Werner Herzog(German)
i could list of a whole bunch, but i'm not really sure what
you're into etc. and in order to appreciate certain films,
you really have to be used to the style (ie: watching a
really long silent film, having never seen a silent film
before... watching a really odd-ball japanese comedy having
never seen japanese filmmaking before etc.)
but you should definitely check out the first one... it's
done by the director of dancer in the dark just before he
decided only to use digital film... but now that i think
about it... that film might actually be in english...

Yeah, Lars von Trier's The Kingdom. A TV series edited
together and released as a fil IIRC. Good stuff.

Which reminds me, there's a Swedish film called 'Songs From
The Second Floor', very, very good and with a certain
Scandinavian Lynchness that's very appealing.

all the foreign movies i like are from sweden, made in the
70s and don't really contain much dialogue other than
"aarrggh" and "oh yeah"

damnit qrter! :-p
I know we disagree on almost everything, but how could you
possibly not like that movie?

Never before have i seen a movie that made me laugh out loud
almost all the way through, and yet at the end left me with
a lump in my throat. I was watching it with my family and we
all felt the same way... so in other words: dude, what's
wrong with you? ;-)

oh well.. I thought Roberto Begnini was irritating AS HELL
from the very beginning. "I AM OVERACTING!! I AM
OVERACTING!! PLEASE LIKE ME!!"
I guess you kind of have to get swept away by his
performance. I didn't. I'm not a fan of the Italian school
of acting.

I just couldn't get in the film.

I thought the concentration camp scenes were like the Disney
version of the camps. that kind of irked me.

I guess I thought the movie was too predictable - maybe not
so much in plot terms, more in emotional evolvement of the
characters.

also some strange stuff happening in the film. at the end,
the mother and the son find eachother a bit too easily etc.

the only part I geniunely liked was when they go to see the
opera and he sits in the crowd and is watching her and
saying "look at me, look at me" and she does. that seemed
small and touching to me. all the stuff with the kid really
didn't do anything for me. The "look at me"-part was more
subtle, thats why I liked it, I think.

I went to see it with a group of friends and we all were
disappointed.

so there. :P

"so there. :P"

hehe... well what can i say? There must be more people
(crazy people ;-)) who don't like it then.

I can see what you mean with the over-acting... but i
thought it worked well. It's slapstick-comedy. Like Laurel &
Hardy. The most amazing part of the movie was (for me) that
something like that also caused other emotions than just
laughter.
