- DirectorVladimir MotylStarsAnatoliy KuznetsovPavel LuspekayevSpartak MishulinAt the end of the Russian Civil War, Red Army soldier Fyodor Sukhov is ordered to guard the harem of a Caspian Sea guerrilla leader.
- DirectorGiuliano MontaldoStarsGian Maria VolontèRiccardo CucciollaCyril CusackIn 1920s Boston, Italian immigrants Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti are scrutinized for their anarchist beliefs while on trial for robbery and murder.
- DirectorKaneto ShindôStarsKichiemon NakamuraNobuko OtowaKei SatôTwo women are raped and killed by samurai soldiers. Soon they reappear as vengeful ghosts who seduce and brutally murder the passing samurai.KURONEKO is simply one of the best ghost/horror films ever made. The stylised nature of the film creates the feeling "haunting" in a way that few horror films could ever even imagine. The aesthetics informed many other ghost stories, particulary those from Asia, for example A Chinese Ghost Story (1987), but few other films are as undiluted as KURONEKO.
- DirectorYuri KulakovStarsDerek JacobiJoseph FiennesTimothy WestSwords fly as Beowulf battles the evil Grendel in this exciting animated adaptation of the epic poem.I found this very accurate compared to the story itself and also very well drawn in terms of animation.It also gives that perfect gloomy atmosphere which is intended to be in the script. I nearly shed a tear at the ending, Beowulf's death is a very sad yet epic and gloryful moment.
- DirectorFrantisek VlácilStarsJosef KemrMagda VásáryováNada HejnaA grim portrayal of the shift from Paganism to Christianity in medieval central Europe - as a young virgin promised to God is kidnapped and raped by a marauder who her religious father seeks to kill in return.It's a medieval epic, basically about the clash between the old pagan world and the emerging Christian one, but there's a lot more to it than that. Visually, it's nearly as stunning as *Andrei Rublev* (and a good bit faster-paced); some of the images - wolves roaming the barren forests, horsemen in snowstorms - will make the hairs on the back of your neck stand up. I'll admit that I'm a sucker for gloomy, wintry European art movies, especially if they work some bloody sword-fights in, too, but this is one of the overlooked Great Movies
- DirectorShôhei ImamuraStarsHiroyuki NagatoJitsuko YoshimuraMasao MishimaA young hoodlum decides to work for a criminal organization that is tearing itself apart.
- DirectorNarciso Ibáñez SerradorStarsLilli PalmerCristina GalbóJohn Moulder-BrownA strict headmistress runs a secluded school for wayward girls in 19th century France, whose students are disappearing under mysterious circumstances.
- DirectorAndrzej WajdaStarsLionel StanderFerdy MaynePauline ChallonerIn 1212, children from all over Europe lead a crusade to free Jerusalem from Turkish authorities. Nicholas and Stephen use all their might to defeat the enemy.
- DirectorZbigniew ChmielewskiStarsJirí VrstálaMarek DudekZygmunt MalawskiThe story of Jewish boy Tadek Raniecki who befriends a German guard in a Nazi concentration camp. The guard wants to adopt the boy provided that he forgets his parents and Jewish culture.
- DirectorKaneto ShindôStarsDaijirô HaradaNobuko OtowaKeiko ToriiAfter leaving high school, Michio Yamada (Norio Nagayama in the real life incidents) becomes involved in the shudan shushoku, a post-war Japanese government work program which involves taking almost an entire high school graduating class from the countryside to Tokyo to work for a fruit company. Some terrible things happened to his family in the past and that explains why Michio came later to have perpetrated so many killings.The director-writer, who previously impressed us with such disparate subjects as the medieval, demon-ridden "Onibaba" and the eloquent, if wordless, documentary like "The Island," appears to be concerned with the problems, by implication, of many of Nippon's contemporary young people. And, while his hero's traumatic experiences and basically weak character make him special, it is a case history that is, nevertheless, curiously universal and arresting.
- DirectorKaneto ShindôStarsNobuko OtowaTaiji TonoyamaShinji TanakaA family of four are the sole inhabitants of a small island where they struggle each day to irrigate their crops.Kaneto Shindo creates a visually distilled, minimalist, and understated, yet compelling and profoundly expressive portrait of human struggle, perseverance, and survival in Naked Island. Crafting a remarkably fluid and tightly edited film that is entirely devoid of dialogue, Shindo effectively exploits the characters' silence in order to capture an organic rhythm that, in turn, reflects the cycle and ritual of human experience: the repetition of daily tasks that begin and end in darkness; the evocative, cross-cut shots of the father watering the wilting crops as the mother arduously transports water barrels; the cadence of displaced water from a rowing oar; the allusive depiction of seasonal change through images of harvested fields, village festivals, cherry blossoms, land tilling, and crop seeding.
- DirectorErnst LubitschStarsCarole LombardJack BennyRobert StackDuring the German occupation of Poland, an acting troupe becomes embroiled in a Polish soldier's efforts to track down a German spy.While there are plenty of laughs, Lubitsch never loses sight of the tragedy going on all around these characters. A montage of post-invasion destruction reminds us of who the German army's major targets were, and the lingering threat, as well as the SS's callow participation in it, means the potential consequence is never dulled. Lubitsch's gamble pays off: as audiences, we are invested precisely because we are enjoying ourselves. These merry men and woman make us laugh, and so we care about what happens to them. We like them, and we want to keep on liking them, and by logical extension, we hate anyone that would make the laughter stop.
- DirectorGleb PanfilovStarsInna ChurikovaAnatoliy SolonitsynMikhail GluzskiyA talented girl is trying to find happiness amidst the Russian revolution of 1917 and the civil war that split the nation.An intriguing film set during the October Revolution details events of a young nurse travelling on a hospital train tending wounded during the war. We follow her through a budding romance with a young soldier and her eventual discovery of her artistic skills through her association with a painter encountered on the train.
- DirectorJerzy HoffmanStarsJerzy BinczyckiAnna DymnaTomasz StockingerAbandoned by his wife and daughter, a famous surgeon starts drinking, hurts his head and loses his memory. His medical knowledge gradually resurfaces and he becomes a village healer, not remembering who he is.This movie is great. After so many years lots of details are almost gone from my memory, but I remember it as a beautiful film, great actors, great music
- DirectorIrene StarewiczWladyslaw StarewiczStarsClaude DauphinRomain BouquetSylvain ItkineWhen Renard the Fox's mischievous pranks go too far, King Lion is forced to attempt to bring the trickster to justice.The animation is truly visionary and charming, with beautiful attention to detail and impressionist touches. These puppets are alive with character, and you can draw a straight line from this film to the magic of Wes Anderson’s Fantastic Mr. Fox. The story is delightful (but often macabre… not sure if you’d want your kids to watch this, despite the milieu) with loads of great gags, culminating in a madcap castle siege that rivals the climax of Duck Soup in terms of pure insanity and mayhem.
- DirectorMichael CacoyannisStarsIrene PapasGiannis FertisAleka KatselliLiving in exile after the death of their father, the grown children of a murdered and usurped king converge to exact eye-for-an-eye revenge.This pictorial translation of one of the greatest Greek tragedies, produced and directed by Michael Cacoyannis in ancient dress and on locations in Greece, amounts to a brilliant utilization of the cinematic device to transmute the gold of verbal poetry from one to another art form.
