    Default Foreign Language Film Recommendations

    I'm keen on watching movies in another language other than English since I find the level of insight and filmography interesting. Please post your recommendations here.

    1) French - Jeux D'enfants
    2) Belgian-French - Rust and Bone
    3) Japanese - Confessions
    4) Korean - Oldboy

    5) Korean - The Crucible/Silenced
    6) Argentinian - The Secrets in their eyes

    1 is a dark romance, 2 is drama, 3 and 4 are psylogical thriller (a little bit more twisted than normal), 5 is a depressing drama, 6 is a crime drama.

    L'Ennemi public no 1/ L'Instinct de mort - French (two movies about the world famous French robber)

    Trois couleurs trilogie (Bleu/Blanc/Rouge) - French/Polish (I am not going to spoiler this trilogy, if you haven't watched it yet, do it because you can't die without having seen it)

    Брат (Brat\Brother) - Russian (cool movie about the reality within Russian mobsters\mafia after the colapse of Soviet Union)

    Црна мачка, бели мачор (Black Cat, White Cat) - Serbian (probably the best romantic comedy ever done, period)

    Cela 211 - Spain (a movie about a prison riot)

    Dzien swira (Day of the Wacko) - Poland (awesome drama\comedy, highly recommended)

    From Hungary I can recommend Kontroll (mystery-action-romance), A Pál utcai fiúk (hands down the best Coming-of-Age film ever), A tanú (one of the best political satires ever) and Werckmeister harmóniák (sublime art cinema, drama).
