A few of those aren't on netflix :/
La Haine not at all
The Killer not on DVD yet but I have it saved...
Liked Kung Fu Hustle

Which Ingmar Bergman movie would be the best to start with?

Juliette Binoche is ethereally beautiful, it must be said.

I'm not a Bergman expert, but I've never seen one I didn't like. Virgin Spring maybe?

And buy La Haine - it's a keeper. Vincent Cassel is monstrously good (as in all his films).

Red is the best IMO. Juliette Binoche is one of favorite actress.

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.

I meant that Red is my favorite and on a different note, Juliette Binoche is one of my favorite actress. I was not implying that Binoche was in Red.
Binoche's work in Blue is phenomenal.The story of Blue is told almost entirely in her face and gestures.

Maria Full of Grace

It is on HBO right now. Columbian movie about a girl who smuggles drugs to the US. It is a very well acted movie. I think the lead actress won some awards.

the Decalogue is generally considered one of the more impressive achievements in film history.

Kieslowski, in my mind, was the greatest filmmaker over the last 30 years. The Trois Coleurs trilogy is his masterpiece.

Also, take a look at The Decalogue and The Double Life of Veronique.

I can't imagine anyone not loving these films, unless all you expect from a movie is stuff that "blowed-up real good."

I'm convinced. I'm ordering all of em.

I love all three of these movies, particularly Blue and Red. White is good, but it is in the shadow of the other two. Having said that, it is a must see as well, as certain incidents in Blue and Red make more sense if you have seen White. Red must be seen last. Irene Jacob is a very good actress, and an amazingly beautiful woman. I fell totally and completely in love with her when I saw Red.
