How many have you seen and what are your favorites? I watch alot of Hindi movies, since I'm Indian, but I'm not Hindi. So I watch the movies with subtitles. My favorite is Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham. I've also seen Y Tu Mama Tambien (extremely explicit), Brotherhood of the Wolf, Bend It Like Beckham, and Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon. That's all I can think of now, but I know I've seen more. I'll post more as they come to my head.

CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

I've seen quite a few asian films. I especially prefer Japanese flicks. The Returner was pretty good. Hero was excellent. Preferred it to Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon.
Then I've seen a few Swedish and Finnish films noones ever heard about...

Belle Epoque is definitely my favorite foreign flick. The plot is pretty predictable, but the characters are so quirky and humorous that it hardly matters. I especially like the guy who keeps switching between being a Carlista and a Republican, swearing each time that this time its for good.

Oh and yeah, I know Battle Royale is a cult movie, but I still think it was horrible.

Whale Rider
The Crying Game
Insomnia
Waking Ned Devine
La Femme Nikita
Run Lola Run
