i second powerclown on alphaville.
tarkowsky's "solaris" is just amazing.
"le circle rouge" is fine stuff--french film noir-ish.
"coup de torchon" i really really like--jom thompson's book pop.1280 mapped onto senegal in the 1930s---excellent film--tavernier directed.
"the fast runner" as well....inuit with subtitles--beautiful film...
there are quite a few iranian films that i like--have a weakness for kairostami.
o and "yeelen"---a total headfuck---you'll not see anything like it. it s hard to explain---better just to watch.
