I've seen 28, so nearly a third snoopcester Send a noteboard - 31/08/2010 06:50:43 PM
There were a few I'm suprised didn't make it -

Beaufort, Days of Glory, The Proposition and Zatoichi would make my listing and would be in the top 50.

Empire's 100 Best Films of World Cinema Legolas - 31/08/2010 02:50:01 PM 1785 Views
As for my quibbles with the list... Legolas - 31/08/2010 03:01:43 PM 1153 Views
Since it's "World Cinema," does that automatically exclude U.S. films? *NM* Palatine - 31/08/2010 05:51:00 PM 547 Views
It usually means non-English language films *NM* snoopcester - 31/08/2010 06:36:34 PM 523 Views
Not only that, it also seems to exclude British, Australian and other English-language ones. Legolas - 31/08/2010 07:57:19 PM 1007 Views
No one minds Australia's exclusion. All they make is bad Jackie Chan films. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 31/08/2010 10:55:18 PM 422 Views
Priscilla, Queen of the Desert would've been a shoe-in otherwise... *NM* Legolas - 01/09/2010 12:14:28 AM 441 Views
And after somebody brought up Requiem for a Dream in the other thread... Legolas - 01/09/2010 02:15:51 PM 997 Views
Hey I've only seen 21 ironclad - 31/08/2010 03:40:54 PM 1059 Views
My opinion of their list rose by a fair bit when I saw La vita รจ bella was not on it. Legolas - 31/08/2010 07:56:15 PM 1044 Views
What exactly is Battle Royale doing there? Lordling - 31/08/2010 04:07:46 PM 1162 Views
Juno is Canadian-American though. ironclad - 31/08/2010 07:40:20 PM 1072 Views
I'm quite surprised to see that La Vita e bella (Life is Beautiful) isn't on the list. *NM* Missa Sedai - 31/08/2010 04:51:53 PM 707 Views
Me too. Pleasantly surprised. *NM* Legolas - 31/08/2010 07:57:47 PM 530 Views
Really? I thought the movie was fantastic and well-made. *NM* Missa Sedai - 01/09/2010 12:36:05 AM 541 Views
In fairness, Roberto Benigni being an overrated ass doesn't mean his only good film isn't good. Legolas - 01/09/2010 01:01:21 AM 1075 Views

I've seen one Haneke movie (La Pianiste), and I've decided I'm going to keep it that way. Legolas - 01/09/2010 04:08:55 PM 1007 Views
I haven't seen any of his other films so I'm not sure what to expect really Stephen - 01/09/2010 04:26:40 PM 1035 Views
