You've made the best movies in Europe, I have to admit. Tom Send a noteboard - 14/12/2009 01:49:58 PM
The Lives of Others, Goodbye Lenin, The Downfall, Das Boot, Metropolis...hell, even Triumph of the Will.

EDIT: This is considering Russia as separate, cinematically speaking, from "Europe". I've always considered it sui generis.
Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.

ἡ δὲ κἀκ τριῶν τρυπημάτων ἐργαζομένη ἐνεκάλει τῇ φύσει, δυσφορουμένη, ὅτι δὴ μὴ καὶ τοὺς τιτθοὺς αὐτῇ εὐρύτερον ἢ νῦν εἰσι τρυπώη, ὅπως καὶ ἄλλην ἐνταῦθα μίξιν ἐπιτεχνᾶσθαι δυνατὴ εἴη. – Procopius

Some of those European movies you haven't watched because you're American, but really should. cabbage - 10/12/2009 08:40:48 PM 1000 Views
I only heard of half of them. *NM* jh - 10/12/2009 09:49:40 PM 284 Views
. . . THAT'S HOW INVADED BY AMERICA WE ARE! </caps> *NM* cabbage - 10/12/2009 10:32:43 PM 290 Views
I've heard of most, but for some the English title is utterly obscure. Legolas - 10/12/2009 11:13:23 PM 633 Views
That's totally not my fault! (I think "head on against the wall" is the idea.) *NM* cabbage - 11/12/2009 01:38:46 AM 351 Views
I've seen two! Darth_Katie - 10/12/2009 09:53:02 PM 455 Views
I have seen, The Shrike - 11/12/2009 02:46:24 AM 573 Views
Yes, and Perfume and Dogville are both the kind of movie I'd watch twice in a row. *NM* cabbage - 11/12/2009 05:43:44 AM 252 Views
Dogville is admittedly depressing, though. *NM* Legolas - 11/12/2009 01:35:14 PM 292 Views
Dogville is an atrocious movie. Self indulgent nonsense. *NM* Wibble - 11/12/2009 06:35:05 PM 288 Views
Your face is self-indulgent nonsense! *NM* cabbage - 12/12/2009 11:46:01 AM 330 Views
Of course it is. I wash it, and shave it, and moisturise it. It's my most self -indulgent part. *NM* Wibble - 12/12/2009 02:48:34 PM 309 Views
Pfah!, pfeh, hrm. Damn. *NM* cabbage - 13/12/2009 03:14:13 PM 306 Views

Yeah some of those are decent. ironclad - 11/12/2009 08:59:40 AM 615 Views
I've never even seen Lars von Trier, but I'm sure he's an arrogant asshole. *NM* cabbage - 11/12/2009 11:16:08 AM 347 Views
I wouldn't know, nor care ironclad - 11/12/2009 01:26:54 PM 500 Views
Wait...Perfume was a European movie? Tom - 11/12/2009 02:00:36 PM 482 Views
Really? I thought it was a french/italian thing, but I never checked and don't know why I assumed. *NM* cabbage - 12/12/2009 11:49:59 AM 330 Views
Directed, written, produced, shot by Germans, m'dear. *NM* ironclad - 13/12/2009 02:29:32 PM 207 Views
Well, then. At least I'm on the right continent! *NM* cabbage - 13/12/2009 03:03:39 PM 310 Views
Also, I'm running out of reasons to hate Germany. *NM* cabbage - 13/12/2009 03:04:08 PM 320 Views

I've seen Betty Blue. *NM* Palatine - 11/12/2009 05:31:44 PM 314 Views

Himmelfall? *NM* Camilla - 11/12/2009 09:16:52 PM 341 Views
Is good, but really far from the top 20 list of European productions from the last decade. *NM* cabbage - 12/12/2009 11:51:22 AM 294 Views
Ah, well. Maybe. Camilla - 12/12/2009 11:53:10 AM 546 Views
