Damn she's got some nice nails.
Technically Hollywood is foreign cinema to me
The good the bad the weird
One of the greatest action films. Literal perfection.

The director also did A Bittersweet Life which was a great film too. The sound track was 11/10.

Why does a "foreign film" have to be a category?
Can't you just watch a film based on the genre like action, drama etc. regardless of where it was made?
I'm not American so I don't know why the spoken language such a big deal sometimes.

I'm pretty pleb when it comes to international cinema, but I fucking love Italian genre films, 60's-80's
Last one I saw was pic related, it was fantastic

Many people, myself included, are anglocentric and simply don't have much interest in foreign films (aka not in English)
The regional styles and cultural eccentricities can be difficult to penetrate so it's easier to just watch an anglophone film instead. Also speaking for myself, when I sit down to watch a movie I am drunk 99% of the time. This makes reading subtitles a bit of a chore
