anything by goddard, tarkovsky or bergman, they were very influential in the history of cinema.

Seen Solaris and Stalker, many Bergmans, and Breathless. Read Godard movies can be hard to watch, very slow.

Just saw Amelie, seen Devil, couldn't make it through more than a 1/4 or so of tambien, will take a look at Night.

reply

Have you seen Bølgen (2015). I like disaster movies, so it was right up my alley. I thought it was pretty decent for the genre.

reply

Added. I should probably take another look at tambien too.

reply

Tambien isn't for everyone. I also really like Como agua para chocolate (1992), the book was way better, but I loved the movie when I was younger, and still appreciate it today.

reply

Yeah, I just didn't find the opening story all that engaging so stopped it. I may get back to it.

Never got to chocolate, but I will.

Thanks
