Hi Alex!

>Not a new movie (2000) but new to me, Nine Queens (Nueve Reinas), a mystery/thriller from Argentina.

yeah, I did see that one a few months ago. Pretty good indeed.

Another "not so new" (2002) one I saw this year (but that's not "foreign" to me), was the Brazilian movie "City of God". I saw it was #18 on the Top 250 list on the IMDB and decided to check it out. Loved it.

Well, there's also all the horror Japanese movies that are usually much better then their Hollywood counterparts, such as Dark Water, The Ring, etc.
