  • Or the Belgain film: 'Man bites dog'???

  • @georgekaplanful I enjoy that movie.

  • Great picks! I have yet to see Pickpocket but I want to get to it as soon as I can. Bicycle Thieves is one of my favorites and The Spirit of the Beehive is a peculiar case for me. I liked it a lot. I don't know why. I can't even explain the movie but it got to me on a visceral level. Then on the interviews in the special features i learned that not even the actor got the movie when they first read the script! Then I thought I wasn't so lost after all! LOL! I simply love it.

    Thanks for sharing

  • @freshymint1 very good. When you see Pickpocket, let me know what you think.

  • Gilliam I think used Spirit in 2nd from last film, in the use of the railroad

  • @PtAltmVansanTarr i think your right

  • without exclusive nods to Criterion, here are 5 foreign flicks that should embarass anyone making films in Hollywood circa 2012: The Human Condition, hours long 3 part Criterion epic, Japanese. 1990 Armenian film called The Yearning, watched it from Facets on VHS. Vidas Secas, neorealistic film from early 1960s Brazil. A Mexican film from 1961 called Yanco. French film from 1967 called Blissful Alexander. 1970 Yves Montand film called The Confession. And...Il Grido,Leon Morin,FreezeDieComeToLife

  • Good guy Good guy.

  • @CameronMcCasland You should watch District B13. It's newer than the the others. Plus it's an action movie. But I love it. It's French and if you watch it please give me feedback.

  • nice beard yo!

  • @PtAltmVansanTarr I had watched it fairly recently before making this video and it moved me. I like what it has to say about the power of the movies to shape your life. These are not always my favorites, just some that i enjoy.

  • @EiCoolguy i'll keep my eyes peeled for it. thanks for watching

  • @drbrth thanks for the comments. I've never seen white wedding, Ill look out for it.
