Don't know where to start with this one - about half my DVD's are "foreign".... here's a few...
Takeshi Kitano is good:
- Sonatine (Ganstery but also meditative in places. A good film)
- Zatoichi (Samurai)
Also Kim Jee Woon: (He has just gone Hollywood)
- A Bittersweet LIfe (Great dark gangstery again. Imdb list it as Dalkomhan insaeng from 2005, not the 2015 film)
- The good, the bad and the weird. (To a lesser extent. A bizarre eastern Western)
Stephen Chow (?):
- Kung Fu Hustle (Fantastic Kung Fu/Comedy)
Pedro Almodovar (Odd but sometimes very good Spanish director. Offbeat human dramas)
- Volver
- Talk to her
Studio Ghibli (Animation - Miyazaki et al)
- Howls Moving Castle
- freaking insane Away (My Fav Ghibli)
Festen, a quiet Danish film Directed by Thomas Vinterberg is brilliant
If anyone wants a general recommendation about now, it's a very tacky and very violent but I enjoyed "Machete" (Robert Rodriguez). Especially if you like Tarantino.
Edit: Really should have mentioned +1 on Pans Labyrinth. Devils Backbone by same director (Guillermo del Toro) is also supposed to be good but not seen it.
