Foreign Language Films I Have Seen
Here I will list all the foreign language films I have seen, good, bad, and ugly. By foreign language I mean any film where the main language NOT English. I have also included movies that are majority English but deal with particular themes, like different ethnicities, religions, languages. I will not list any Indian-language films here (Hindi, Punjabi, Telugu etc) because I have a separate list for that! World cinema is amazing because they have so much flavour and beauty that a lot of English films cannot create. I definitely recommend some, if not all of these films to you! You may see a pattern in the films I choose to watch. Like with my Indian film list, I've first listed films I remember and then later on, they are in sequential watch order.
