Does anybody else here like foreign language (subtitled!) independent and arthouse films?

I think European and other world arthouse cinema is generally much more intelligent and better than Hollywood movies!

But most pakistanis i have met don’t seem to like these types of movies. I am hoping I can meet a few fans of serious (real!) cinema on gupshup!

Examples of great films:

Three Colours: Blue (French)
Betty Blue (French)
Juana La Loca (Spanish)
L’Appartement (French/Italy)
La Reine Margot (F)
Lucia y el sexo (Spanish)
Y Tu Mama Tambien (Mexican)
Apres Los Ojos (Spanish)
Lovers of the Arctic Circle (Spanish)
Brother (Japan)
Farewell my concubine (China)
Gohatto (Japan)
Dobermann (F)
etc etc etc

Yeah European cinema is good indeed, but I don't have much time watch movies in cinema.
