Great list, annasea!

I already included some non-Hollywood movies in the other list, but here goes (in no particular order)...

La Belle Noiseuse.

Solaris (Tarkovsky's original version).

Love is the Devil.

Chen Kaige's Farewell My Concubine and Life on a String.

And almost making the list (but not quite), Pen-ek Ratanaruang's Last Life in the Universe, François Ozon's Sous le sable (Charlotte Rampling was so great in this film), and a bunch of Kurosawa movies...

Forgot to list one of my all-time favorites in the other thread -- King of Hearts. Incredible movie. Alan Bates is such a chameleon.

The Commitments and any four Bond films !!

Forgot to include a movie I greatly admire but have only seen once (if anyone know where I can get a copy on DVD, please PM!) - Victor Erice's El sol del membrillo.

Lagaan

Amelie (not sure if by "foreign" you mean released first outside the US or just in another language)

Como Agua Para Chocolate

Metropolis

Shichinin no samurai

Forgot 'The Italian Job' too - and I don't mean the appalling remake ! Same goes for 'Alfie' actually aswell. Oooh, Kung ** Hustle's a cracker too

That's abit much on the censorship !! Freedom of speech my aris ! It comes to something when the name of a martial art is censored out !!
