Well, I love "foreign movies" too. Of course, 99.9% of movies are foreign for me, as Ireland doesn't have much of a movie industry!
But I suspect you mean, non-Hollywood (or even non-English) movies. And I heartedly agree. Whilst I like a block-buster as much as the next guy, I find I'm more attracted to independent of foreign movies.
If you like Jean De Florette and Mamon de Sources, try to catch "Le Belle Epoque", "Delicatessan" (VERY quirky!) and (if you want to see a good French action movie, that is FAR superiour to the US remake) "La Femme Nikita".
Other great non-English movies include Das Boot (German movie on WWII submarine warfare), "Cinema Paradiso" (still makes me cry), "Seven Samurai"...
Sheesh, I could go on and on!
Welcome to the rest of your life mate. There's so many cool movies out there that are not sugared Hollywood fluff...
