Good Movies with subtitles.


I used to watch a lot of them, but haven't recently.

The preview for this one drew me in, very original horror comedy.

The Columnist (2019) Netherlands
A columnist must continuously deal with threats and negative comments on her social-media pages. One day, she has had enough and decides to hunt down her trolls.

Which genre do you prefer? I watch a lot of Thai / Korean / Japanese films, but would like to narrow it down to what might interest you.

reply

I've watched a lot of the early 2000s for all those languages. Horror and Mystery are my 2 favorite genres.

reply

Ok, SE Asian cinema is very good in these genres. I’ll get back to you.

I've never seen the movie, but I love the Dutch title. Seems very fitting.

I recognized the star from the series Evil 2019, I didn't even realize she was Dutch. Her American accent is perfect. She's very well cast in this.

I watch A LOT of foreign language films. On the whole I think I prefer them, definitely over most of the mainstream US films released. Some good ones I’ve seen in recent months:

In The Fade (2017) - German revenge drama starring the amazing Diane Kruger

Monk (2017) - Dutch/Spanish comedy/drama about a family of neurotics on a road trip to visit a dying relative.

Only The Animals (2019) - French mystery with multiple characters whose stories are told separately until the converge at the end with the reveal. This one’s really clever and is like a mix of Fargo and Lantana, which is about the highest praise I can give in a comparison.

Son of Saul (2015) - devastating Hungarian film about a concentration camp inmate’s quest to properly bury a young Jewish boy. Not an easy watch, but incredible in every way.

Boys (2014) - Dutch coming of age story about a teenager who falls in love with one of his athletics team mates. Really sweet and heartwarming movie.

Psycokinesis (2018) - Crazy South Korean adventure film about a wayward father who develops superpowers and uses them to help his daughter save their shopping district from being shut down by evil developers. A cool twist on the superhero genre.

Sophie Scholl
Venus in Fur
Frantz
Riders of Justice

(That last one might have been my favorite film of 2020 in any language.)

I loved Frantz, too 👍
