Movies

Dear People,

I have mellowed as I've aged, and I've also become more efficient. As a result, I have been watching more movies. Television I feel guilty about; as Em naggingly reminds me, it is democratic (but I am learning to accept my inner bourgeoisie--oh hell, is that the right ending, Emma?). But movies are like books--they have a beginning, middle, and end; they are often aesthetically pleasing; they even probe philosophical questions (well, some of them do, anyway).

Before Sunset and A Very Long Engagement are two movies I've enjoyed watching recently; I am trying to get my hands on Before Sunrise, but it seems to be in demand at the University media library.

My dilemma is that I must request movies at the media library--I can't browse. Hence my question, what are your favorite movies? I like foreign movies, in particular. Some of you will have an idea of what I've already seen, some of you will not. Please post anyway.
