5x2 (5 x 2: Five Times Two) (2004, R)
Francois Ozon tries his hand at reverse chronology and does an excellent job of capturing the subtle nuances of human behavior and emotion. An outstanding cast and wonderful soundtrack complete the picture. |

Le Pacte des loups (Brotherhood of the Wolf) (2001, R)
if you like Blade and Underworld you will like this one |
|
| 3 |
Das Boot (The Boat) (1981, R)
simply the best sub movie ever made |
|
| 4 |
Cidade de Deus, (City of God) (2003, R)
|
|

The Crime of Padre Amaro (2002, R)

Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (Wo hu cang long) (2000, PG-13)
|
|
| 7 |
Vidocq (Dark Portals: The Chronicles of Vidocq) (2001, R)
At first I thought this was Sherlock Holmes meets V for Vendetta but it's more like Sherlock Holmes meets the Matrix devil. This movie was fantastic - great plot, great fight scenes and a great twist. |

| 8 |
Das Experiment (The Experiment) (2001, R)
an experiment can go too far |
|
| 9 |

awesome kung fu, great story |
|
| 10 |
The Housekeeper (2003, Unrated)
|
|
| 11 |
Irreversible (2002, Unrated)
a powerful story told in reverse chronology; has perhaps the most disturbing 30 minutes of footage I have ever seen |
|
| 12 |
Life Is Beautiful (La Vita è bella) (1998, PG-13)
|
|
| 13 |
Lila Dit (Lila Says) (2005, Unrated)
great movie from beginning to end |
|
| 14 |
Open Your Eyes (Abre los ojos) (Permanent Midnight) (1999, R)
Great movie and not at all like I expected; sort of Donnie Darko-like; makes me want to see the Americanized remake - Vanilla Sky |
|
| 15 |
The Other Side of the Bed (El Otro Lado de la Cama) (2003, R)
cute romantic comedy with an original infusion of a musical |
|
| 16 |
Perfect Blue (1999, R)
|
|
| 17 |
Mararia (2002, Unrated)
|
|
| 18 |
Nobody Knows (Dare mo shiranai) (2004, PG-13)
This is not the type of film to watch again and again. It is long and plodding. But it does so with a purpose - to tell the story of four amazing kids' hardships and hopes. It is sad in a way that slowly saps the strength from you - just as it does to the kids' lives. A powerful picture. |

¡Átame! (Tie Me Up! Tie Me Down!) (1990, NC-17)
Funny, in a demented sort of way. Featuring one of the most classic nude scenes in cinema history. Great ending. The movie that inspired Penelope Cruz to become an actress. |

Die Blechtrommel (The Tin Drum) (1979, R)
|
|
| 30 |
Y Tu Mama Tambien (2001, R)
|
|
| 31 |
Turks Fruit (Turkish Delight) (The Sensualist) (Wild Intent) (1973, R)
a man who has little regard for anything falls in love - this movie is gritty, sex-charged, and full of symbolism; from the man who brought you Basic Instinct |
|
| 32 |
A Very Long Engagement (Un long dimanche de fiançailles) (2004, R)
|
|
| 33 |
Man cheng jin dai huang jin jia (Curse of the Golden Flower) (2006, R)
Quite possibly the most visually stunning film I have ever seen. You know what to expect from a Yimou Zhang film. |
