I will admit I have not seen very many foreign films
Agree with these 3. Watch "The Nowhere Man" and "The Secret in Their Eyes". Both foreign and both 10s.

Agree with these 3 too. TLADILA has the best ****ing car scene ever. Friedkin topped his "The French Connection", which is pretty ****ing amazing.

The original is so much better than the remake.

FAIL. The remake left out one of the most important scenes of the entire story. Have you read the novel?
