What? No French Movies? What About Almodóvar? Wim Wenders?

You’re right. Let’s make it 25.

The 400 Blows
Wings of Desire
Lost in Transit (Tombés du ciel, sadly, never released on video, yet remade into a Tom Hanks movie by Steven Spielberg)
Talk to Her
Caché

Just saw Wings of Desire again recently. In many ways it surpassed my fond memories. But then that didactic monologue at the end. Ouch.

You're absolutely right. Full disclosure: I've never actually stayed awake for an entire screening of the film. And yet the parts I did see still merit a spot in the Top 25.

I liked Wings of Desire (payoff for those years of German classes). I made a terrible, terrible mistake and once watched the American remake with Meg Ryan, City of Angels or something like that. Do not repeat this error.

How about your Top 25 novels, Top 25 nonfiction works, Top 25 albums?
