Kung-Fu Hustle - watched it on Film4 a couple of weeks ago.
really enjoyed it

 

[ali benarbia's studs]

spain- sex and lucia " well written ,far out movie"
china- assembly "for war buffs- on par with saving private ryan"

both worth the watch!

Another vote for Jean de Florette and Manon des Sources.

For the more discerning connoisseur of Japanese aesthetics, I might recommend Ai No Corrida but not in the presence of an elderly aunt.

I only ever watch Japanese cinema in the presence of my elderly aunt.

[Lmarkham-blueblood]

The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo.

Or a film (I can't remember the name) where the protagonist goes to a rough boarding school in France and teaches them how to sing. Can anyone tell me what it's called?

Edit: I've found it! 'The Chorus'.

the girl with the draagon tatoo is good.


favorites are:

Battle Royale
City of God
Das Boot
Old Boy
Let The Right One In
The Girl With The Dragon Tatoo

^^ in that order
