Even for a master of Bergman's powerful talent, "Fanny and Alexander" is extraordinary - a profound film which is also one of his most accessible works.

 | Los Olvidados Aka The Forgotten and The Young and the Damned
The story of troubled youth and urban violence has been told many times, but this is, perhaps, the best film on the subject ever made. This is an unblinking look at the hell on earth that looks like slums of Mexico City back in 1950s. It is also a masterful combination of gritty realism and Buñuel's surrealism.

 | Harakiri - Criterion Collection
Buy new: $31.49 / Used from: $22.47 I've said it once about another movie, incidentally by the other great Japanese director as well and I want to repeat my words in regard to "Harakiri": "There are good, very good, and even great movies. But among them there are just a few that go beyond great. They belong to the league of their own". Masaki Kobayashi's "Harakiri" aka "Seppuku" is one of them.

 | The Complete Works of Yuri Norstein (DVD NTSC)
I love "Triplets of Bellville" and I admire "Spirited Away" but "Skazka skazok (Tale of Tales)" (1979) is the pinnacle of the genre - what Tarkovsky did in Zerkalo, Norstein had achieved in his 30 minutes film that was made 25 years ago.

 | The Mirror
Buy new: $25.49 / Used from: $14.95 Finally, my #1 film. I never understood complains that "Zerkalo" is a confusing, difficult, and dark film. No, it is clear and deep as a mirror. Every time you look at the mirror, it will show you new depth and reflections. Past, presence, future, memory, love, guilt, forgiveness, beauty, sadness, nostalgia, and sacrifice - the mirror reflects it all -just watch closely.
