君の名は。 (your name.)

Also my favorite overall movie.

It is available in English but I prefer to watch it in Japanese. Without subs.

I Am Not an Easy Man (French). It's outdated now, but when I watched it as a teenager/ young woman it opened my eyes to a lot that I took for granted. I still think of it all the time when I'm brushing my teeth.

And the version of "You're the One that I Want" plays in my head all the time! So good!

Inu-Oh. I don't like musicals but this one stole my heart.

That one has been in my bucketlist since it came out and I have not been able to watch it yet. It looks great!

The Hairdresser's Husband, a French movie I saw @25 years ago when Bravo was still doing artsy-fartsy instead of brain-rot. I took 4 years of French in H.S., but I don't claim to be fluent.

[–] Ghostie@lemmy.zip 11 points 11 hours ago

Ong Bak 2. That movie is one of the best martial arts films I’ve seen.

[–] bonsai@lemmy.dbzer0.com 13 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

Probably Your Name for me. Beautiful movie, score, story, art.

[–] daggermoon@lemmy.world 3 points 8 hours ago

Cure, it's a Japanese psychological horror/thriller film. Honorable mentions also include Pulse (also Japanese) and Incubus (in Esperanto).

Under Sandet (danish)

A film about a group of 14 y/o war prisoners that have to clean up the mines on the beach, and about the officer that guards them.

[–] MisterOwl@lemmy.world 6 points 11 hours ago

Perfect Blue is all sorts of fucked up in the best way. Really anything Satoshi Kon made.

[–] nightofmichelinstars@sopuli.xyz 5 points 11 hours ago (2 children)

The Lure is a musical about carnivorous mermaid twins who work as strippers in a seedy club. It's Polish.
