For some reason Goodbye Lenin always seems to get missed by people that have otherwise solid selections of foreign films. Its a really excellent movie, and won numerous awards at the Berlin International Film Festival, European Film Awards, German Film Awards, and many more.

If you havent watched Fellini youre missing out bigtime. Brilliant director. I'm also a pretty big Godard fan, and on a completely different note Argento is the man.

Re: Blue/White/Red: the movies
 

Yeah this movie has been on my Netflix queue forever, I just haven't gotten around to watching it.

Das Experiment is on my queue... but down near the bottom (#340 something) I'll have to move it up if I ever wanna see it.

Re: Blue/White/Red: the movies
 

Best money you'll ever spend. Red is the best IMO. Juliette Binoche is one of favorite actress. In Three Colors, everything leads to, or away from, human connection.

Seven Samaurai of course. I imagine you've already seen this, though, and just didn't rate it.

I really dug Brotherhood of the Wolf, really unique french action movie.

Also, Amores Perros(sp?), awesome movie by the director of 21 Grams.

Brotherhood of the wolf was an awesome movie. Monica Belluci is just amazing...

Re: Blue/White/Red: the movies
 

Yeah, I've seen both Seven Samaurai and Brotherhood of the Wolf. Both are great films. I just recently moved Amores Perros into the top-10 of my queue, but I didn't know it was the same director as 21 Grams so... moving it up to #3.


Oh and to the person who suggested Fellini, which should I watch? I've seen Amacord and wasn't particularily impressed (not bad, just not great).


As for other Kieslowski movies, The Decalogue is supposed to be very good... Its like 10 1-hour films, one for each commandment. Haven't begun watching them yet but 1-3 (disc 1) is #2 on my list.

Juliette Binoche is in "Blue." It's Irene Jacob in "Red."

And "Blue" is by far the best -- if you only have time to watch one, watch Binoche's. It's amazing.

Re: Blue/White/Red: the movies
 

Well, I've been convinced. All three are on their way. Nine movies for $35 isn't bad, thanks again to whomever linked that deal from slickdeals.
