Best foreign language film I have ever seen is one called Jeux d'enfants or "Love me if you dare" in English.

It's kind of a messed up love story but very funny and very clever with a great storyline and great acting in it.

Marion Cotillard (Inception) is also another reason to watch it!!

Have you or anyone else on here seen Jean de Florette or its sequel Manon des scources? Great story set in rural France but it could be set amongst country people anywhere.

City of God is in Portugese but it is an absolute master piece. It's my favourite foreign film bar none.

Ain't that the truth. Had to see it twice because my freind wanted to go see it. I wouldn't show it to the dog but somebody decided this movie had to be made and will probably make another.

13 assassins. Great film. Fighting when there are no subtitles and subtitles when there is no fighting. Win win.

super show alright, one scene in particular always stands out for me. Have you watched the other one 'city of men'?

Best foreign films I've watched:

The Bicycle Thief
Amelie
Cinema Paradiso
Il Postino

Must watch the likes of Ran or any of Akira Kurosawa's stuff. They look decent.

It is a serious movie. The final battle scene is epic.

Have to agree - UNREAL show. Which scene stands out for you? I like the scene at the cool lads going away party if that makes sense!
