Which are your favorite non-English movies, series etc?

If not favorite, ones that touched you in some way.

I’ll start by mentioning some movies from my mother tongue(Malayalam of Kerala, India):

  • Mumbai Police
    A crime thriller (Came out almost 2 decades ago n was very striking for the time)
  • KammaraSambhavam
    Political/Historic satire/drama (The main actor has some cases on him, but the movie is quite good)
  • Kathavasheshan
  • Devasuram
    Conservative sigma male upper class Kerala dude getting character development. I really liked how the transformation happened in it
  • Maheshinte Parthikaaram (Mahesh’s Revenge)
    Not an action movie.

From my country, but not in my mother tongue:

  • Super Deluxe - A Tamil movie that I recently watched, quite unique
  • Enthiran (Robot), a Tamil movie
    Has over the top stuff, but is fun to watch
  • Viduthalai(Liberation), another Tamil movie
  • Agent Vinod - A Hindi spy-comedy movie

The anime that I like are Hunter x Hunter, Parasyte, Samurai Flamenco, Gintama.

Looked fine when I posted it. It had line breaks. Weird.

Double space + linebreak
for this and double linebreak

For a paragraph.

Doesn’t help that thunder seems to eat a trailing space when you linebreak.

The Handmaiden by Park Chan-wook is fantastic for movies.

For books, Roadside Picnic by Boris and Arkady Strugatsky, and the movie adaptation Stalker by Tarkovsky, are sci-fi classics.

Human Acts is another amazing book, this time from Han Kang.

Dark (German/Netflix)

Best show, period. I was happy that finally there is a story thought out from start to finish, is smart and does not hold your hand. I should rewatch it soon.

Hands down.

I dont remember another tv show where we watched 10 hours of recap/explanation/theory videos on youtube before each new season.

Amazing show and my favourite part is not even how brilliant the storyline is, but the god tier casting of different aged actors for the same characters.

I_Am_Jacks_____ ,

Agreed. Some of that casting was SO spot on (Jonah in particular)

EmoDuck ,

I wanna add to that Who Am I

It’s a movie made by the same people

If you liked the mystery of Dark and are looking for something to scratch that itch you’ll love it.

I_Am_Jacks_____ ,

Thank you. Will check it out!

Hmm, if I sort my Letterboxd watched list by my highest rating, the first non-english movie to come up is Parasite. I don’t think that’s actually my fave, but it’s up there.

I liked Monkey Man, best non-english language movie I’ve seen so far this year.

3 Idiots, just like anyone who’s gone through engineering school and has seen it.

Seven Samurai and Rashoman
