Well, if i could vote, the chosen one would be Oldboy, damn that movie is great.
But Children Of Men (that scene with In The Court Of The Crimson King on the Battersea Power Station was the most prog scene ever hahahah) and City Of God (very well know movie here in brazil) are great too.


Children Of Men has tons of great scenes, especially those continuous shots are stellar.

i have almost all of these films - not a dud in the bunch ..

Sorcerer is my favourite - and not just because of the TD score .. it's gritty, tense, and mesmorising - perfectly paced and cast. Fit's my cinematic sensibilities to a T.

Makes a good companion piece to Midnight Express.

And no - i haven't seen the original Wages of Fear yet but i will.

Some of my all time favorite movies. It was hard to narrow the list down to these, but I tried to choose films that I think need much more love than they get either because they are foreign (im fairly certain that im one of only a handful of people who live in Alabama that know who Bergman, Tarkovsky, Kurosawa, etc.. are) or because they get over shadowed by the directors other films (Mean Streets, Blood Simple, Sorcerer etc..) oooorrrr because they fit into the cult category ( Videodrome, Repo Man, Naked Lunch etc..).

Hopefully a good mix that will get you to think for a bit.
