bugshaw at 11:28am on 19/09/2012So far (and I seem to grade on a curve, so even the middlings are pretty good)
Good
The Temptation of St Tony (avant garde, psychic journey, beautifully shot)
The Body In The Woods (Catalan Twin Peaks)
War Witch (appalling kidnapping of Congo village children to fight in rebel army, combined with intensely human viewpoints and pervasive mythology which people live and build so not just a "tragedy is bad, m'kay?" film)
Warsaw Bridge
Frank
Middling-good
The Night Elvis Died
Sleep Tight
Santa Sangre
Un Chant D'Amour
Barbara
V.O.S.
Dead Before Dawn - nerdiness of Scott Pilgrim meets Buffy - but I know I didn't get loads of classic teen horror references.
Untouchable
Comic-Con
Bestiare
Totem
Middling
Thanks for the Tip
Come As You Are
The Pleasure Garden
To Rust (shorts)
Hope Springs
Sinister
Guinea Pigs
Didn't get much from
The Idiot - I didn't connect, same feeling I often get when watching Shakespeare. I can tell it's good and a classic but...
Avalon
Formentera
More to come, and my feelings are subject to change as I reflect more :-)

You might hear about Untouchable over the next year, France's second most successful film, especially as they're planning a remake with Colin Firth. Or you might be fed up with films about wheelchairs and prefer films about fast sports cars. This film has both!
