There's not that much actual sex, is there?
Alright, it was enough to make me feel uneasy sitting next to my parents in the cinema back then but still...

I especially liked the turns it took, I wasnt expecting them. Yet the second time the movie is still really good.

highlyinvolved
Difficult to choose just one. There are so many......Tend to go by directors:

Luc Besson
Jean-Pierre Melville
Jean-Pierre Jeunet
Werner Herzog
Julio Medem

Lots more.

Battle Royale (Japan)


The ending always made me laugh. The movies good but I prefer the book.

Amelie
Seres Queridos
Suicide Club (or Suicide Circle)
The Edukators.

I really liked Goodbye Lenin but enjoyed The Edukators a lot more. This is my third year in German and I find it helpful to watch movies in German. Sadly, I'm no where near being fluent enough to be able to watch it without subtitles sad.gif but hopefully I'll get there.

Any recommendations of German films would be much appreciated. biggrin.gif
Klodrik
The Sea Inside.
The Orphanage.
Pan's Labyrinth.

I like spanish films smile.gif

Also, The Bicycle Thieves.

Amelie
Battle Royale
Oldboy
L I A M
The Orphanage
Mental-Mushroom
I absolutley love Jeux d'enfants (Love me if you dare). games are fun! French

And like many people Amelie is a top movie!

Naboer (Next Door) think it was Norwegian totally brilliant.

Tell No-one

Re-Cycle Chinese
