Just to clarify, I am counting anything not made as a US blockbuster as indie for the purposes of this exercise.
1) Only Lovers Left Alive |
Tom Hiddleston, vampires and existential crisis - what more do you need? | |||
| 2) Lost in Translation | A film that had a huge impact on me the first time I saw it - and still does. | |||
| 3) Unrelated | An amazing film from Joanna Hogg with stellar acting from the cast. | |||
| 4) Nymphomaniac | Lars von Trier at his best in a thought-provoking piece on sex and sexuality. | |||
| 5) Donnie Darko | Another film that really spoke to me when I first saw it as I turned twenty. | |||
| 6) Pans Labyrinth | Beautiful, enchanting and creepy. This is del Toro at his absolute best. | |||
| 7) Open Hearts | A perfect performance from Mads Mikkelsen and a deep, heartfelt film. | |||
| 8) Amelie | The sweet film that gave the Hollywood rom-com formula a European twist. | |||
| 9) The Piano Teacher | A wonderful adaptation of the book with an amazing performance from Huppert. | |||
| 10) Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind | Quirky and fun, yet also full of deeper ponderings. I never grow tired of this one. |
Once again, this was harder than I thought it would be. I'd chosen this one next as I thought it would be easy, but I was wrong. There are so many others I couldn't include and, like last week, if you asked me this again next month, some of the selection could be different.
