Have you watched any foreign language movies? If so,which ones?

peculiar_lady2 -> RE: Have you watched any foreign language movies? (1/9/2008 9:47:13 PM)
yes...too many to count.

Okami -> RE: Have you watched any foreign language movies? (1/10/2008 2:06:04 AM)
Only one. Le Femme Nikita It was remade into "Point of No Return"

DaveW -> RE: Have you watched any foreign language movies? (1/10/2008 7:04:29 AM)
I have seen a few. I do not recall the most recent but it was about 2 IDF guys being called up and trying to find their unit during the 6 day war back in 1967. It was all in Hebrew.

miasma -> RE: Have you watched any foreign language movies? (1/10/2008 9:19:43 AM)
Well...yes? Of course? I guess I don't understand the question, except if you're really asking have I seen any, then it probably numbers in the thousands, and I wouldn't know how to start listing them. I guess I could list some of the ones I own: The Colour Trilogy Little Otik La Femme Nikita Killing Zoe Cemetery Man Persona Twin Town (not really, it's Welsh, but a lot of people can't understand it) Wings of Desire Are you just looking for recommendations, or...?

WHTim -> RE: Have you watched any foreign language movies? (1/10/2008 9:21:03 AM)
I've seen too many to list. The latest one however was "Tsotsi."

stellaluna -> RE: Have you watched any foreign language movies? (1/10/2008 11:07:22 AM)
I've seen dozens. I couldn't begin to list them all.

For a while I got into Asian horror flicks. I kept lying to myself and saying they were good. Brotherhood of the Wolf is a good foreign flick. Otherwise, I've watched too many to remember. I think the last one I saw was Angel-A.

Little Otik freaked me out, and I'm not easily freaked out.

We've seen quite a few, especially when we were in our Netflix stage. We finally got a decent video store here with an actual Foreign film section and no giant wall of porn. Last foreign film we saw was (I think)The Devil's Backbone. Anyone think that one looks a little like the current one he's floating around?

Jhud -> RE: Have you watched any foreign language movies? (1/11/2008 5:54:00 PM)
I have seen more than I can count. the most recent was The Seven Samurai with my boys.

It was all in Hebrew. The only Israeli war movies I can recall is Kippur and the more recent Beaufort. There's another one, I think is called A Time of... something...I think that might be the one you're talking about, though I recalled it' set sometime more recently than say, 1967.

I made my son watch Das Boot with me. He was put off initially (he's fourteen; they all have short attention spans!) by the movie's length, but was amazed at how quickly it flew by. I've also recently seen Run Lola Run. Fantastic. And then there's my favorite German movie, Schulze Gets the Blues. It's one of those "little movies" you never hear about, but is well worth searching for. An absolute gem. Go find this movie!

eaglelady11 -> RE: Have you watched any foreign language movies? (1/12/2008 11:12:56 PM)
yes, a lot. the best one is called the Red Balloon, or Le Balon Rouge, about a little boy who befriends a balloon and the other kids make fun of him and pop the balloon. I even cried. And I've seen a few Akira Kurosawa films. In college I saw a slew of foreign films. the worst one was in a Russian Hisotory class. no offense, but I didn't enjoy those at all. perhaps i am too americanized.

Keep in mind, it's not directed by Guillermo del Toro, but is "presented" by him (I suppose as a way of garnering attention). It does remind me a bit of the Devil's Backbone though, crossed with Poltergeist.
