Take 4: The Foreign Collection
I’ve never been averse to a bit of subtitle. For those
of you who shy away from it, you’re missing out on some seriously top drawer
films. So to ease you into what can sometimes be a difficult adjustment, here
are my top 10 foreign favourites.
Amelie – quirky, romantic & humourous
Romauld et Juliette – You’ll never think of yogurt &
caramel in the same way again
Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown – Gazpacho
can be deadly
Volver – a truly brilliant performance by Penelope
Cruz
The Lives of Others – cemented my belief that European cinema totally rocks
Jean de Florette – Gerard Depardieu is brilliant
Manon des Sources – the sequel to the above and
equally mesmerising
Delicatessen – fabulously funny
Cinema Paradiso – just beautiful
Whale Rider – made me want to visit New Zealand way before Peter Jackson did the LOR trilogy
Vive la Cinema
