I also liked Election and (Triad) Election 2, great little pair of Hong Kong gangster films.

.

In Hong Kong they called it Erection.

Probably 2-3 Kurasawa films, 1-2 Fellinis, and also a Bergman, or two.

Rashomon , Seven Samurai and Yojimbo ! My favorite is probably Rashomon another great movie was The Sword of Doom I also really liked Hero

Downfall was great

You just reminded me of a good movie called "Samurai" ND........has sequels also but I`ve never seen them.

"Once Upon A Time In China" is another good one.........the first one anyway.

"The Skin I Live In" was extremely well written, directed and filmed. Not as shocking as the media attention could lead one to believe but the surprise was how well it was crafted. I'll definitely watch more of Pedro Almodovar's work.

Just like most Southern European films, the conversations go very deep and fast, esp when you don't speak Spanish, LOL
Make sure you see his productions with Penelope Cruz like Volver, she's like heaven...

Joint Security Area

Korean Film. Very good story line. One of Tarantino's top 20 Films(American or Foriegn) in the last 20 years.

Good call.

"La Haine" (meaning "hate") - great French film which came out in the mid-90's.

It involves a cop-hating Jew, an afro-caribbean former boxing gym owner, and an arab.

Basically something there for every Getbigger.

Those BOPE films were really good.

As long as this has been brought back up to the top, add me to the folks recommending the Pusher films. I've heard about them for years, but honestly didn't expect much, but they're very good. The second and third films are very strong, with the third being the best of the batch. If you watch them close together, it feels like you're watching a good mini series.

I'd also recommend a British film called Shifty, similar feel to it.

I've recently watched a Norwegian film called "headhunters". Pretty nice.
