Not a big fan of watching a film and reading sub-titles for a couple of hours, but Dragon Tattoo and Let The Right One In were both excellent films. And the only foreign film I seen last year was Blue Is The Warmest Colour, it's a 3-hour take on a young French woman’s sexual awakening when instead of her boyfriend she falls for a slightly older girl. So a 3-hour film with sub-titles about 2 lesbians, it's such a damn good film and the 2 girls are just brilliant.
There is one long extended sex scene - certainly wouldn't have wanted to see that in Brokeback Mountain - but in this film it is so strong to the story and their intense relationship. It is a really good film. |

Le Cop is my fav foreign film, and also the best film about gambling I've seen. |

That's my lot. If you really give a sh*t then Trilogie and er Cinema Paradiso. |

I've just watched Tomboy, an interesting little French film,it was on BBC4 last week.
It's about a girl who pretends she's a boy. Great performances from the child actors, especially the little girl who played the main character's little sister. |

Another vote for The Vanishing, originally titled Spooloos. You won't see the twist at the end coming at all.
