Yes, this _is_ a good list. I agree with everything here (except Kwaidan,
which I haven't seen). I'm especially happy that you mentioned Tsai
Ming-Liang's "The Hole", which might be one of the more profoundly beautiful
movies I've seen (the dream-musical sequences, while funny/nostalgic, ended
up being more touching than anything, by the end). Vive L'Amour is excellent
as well. If anyone out there knows how I can get a hold of either Rebels of
the Neon God or The River, also by Ming-Liang, I'd be more than grateful.
A few more, mostly classics, that I haven't noticed being mentioned:
*Wim Wenders-- Alice in the City; Paris, Texas; Kings of the Road;
Wings of Desire, The American Friend
*Steven Soderberg-- The Limey
*Fritz Lang-- M
*Alfred Hitchcock-- North by Northwest
*Robert Wiene-- The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari
*Nick Roeg-- Performance
*Mike Hodges-- Get Carter (original version w/ M. Caine)
*The Thomas Crown Affair (The Steve McQueen Version)
*Wong Kar-Wai-- Fallen Angels, Days of Being Wild
*David Byrne-- True Stories
*The Brothers Quay collection (shorts)
*Jean-Luc Godard-- Vivre Sa Vie, Masculin-Feminin
*Luis Bunuel-- The Dinner Party
*Fassbinder-- Why does Herr R. Run Amok?, Love is Colder Than Death,
The Marriage of Maria Braun
*May Spils-- Go For It, Baby (Zur Sache, Schaetzchen), Nicht Fummeln,
Liebling
*Jean-Pierre Melville- Le Samourai, Les Enfants Terribles
*Coens-- Millers Crossing, The Hudsucker Proxy
*Jan Svankmajer-- Alice
*Jules Dassin-- Rififi
*Ingmar Bergman-- Persona
*Tim Roth- The War Zone (Without a doubt, the most brilliantly traumatic
film I've ever seen, if muddled in one or two places.)
All right, I need to stop listing things.
Best,
M.
