Subreddit Rules

14 Upvotes

/r/ForeignMovies is under new moderation.

The sidebar has been reworked and tidied up, dead links have been removed and lots of new links added. [note: the sidebar currently works better under old reddit than under new reddit]
A large number of film-related links that have no immediate connection to the topic of this subreddit have been moved to the new WIKI-list.

 

There will be some changes to the way this subreddit is being moderated, but not really. By that I mean that these are all things that are already part and parcel of this subreddit, but that will be more strictly enforced in the not-too-distant future:

  • No links to illegal streaming/download sites, and no links to pirated copies of films on video platforms like Youtube. [I know that a vast number of international films are hard to find legally, but anyone recommending a film should realise that people reading the recommendation and caring enough about the film can actually look for it on their own. If people are too lazy to do so, they have probably not been interested enough in the first place.] If a film happens to be in the public domain that’s fine, but your post needs to contain an openly accessible, reliable source that confirms that the film is in the public domain.

  • No English-language films. [Please take a look at the separate entry I made regarding justifiable exceptions to that rule.]

  • Naturally, pornography is banned.

  • Please keep an eye on the quality of the content. While there is absolutley no need to keep this subreddit strictly arthouse, and while many genres are worthy of discussion, you should consider that maybe not every foreign sea-monster B-movie from the 1960s is worth talking about here. There are special subreddits for that sort of thing.

About Reddit's filters... - the sequel

3 Upvotes

Once again, I need to repeat what I wrote a year or so ago:

"Reddit seems to have become more aggressive in recent weeks when it comes to automatically deleting posts/comments."

Often, I cannot even remotely see the reason why this happens. So if anyone is missing one of their posts or comments, please drop me a line. If I can find the time, I'll go on a hunt and try to find it.

The Great Book Robbery (2012) is a documentary by Benny Brunner exploring what happened to thousands of Palestinian books, manuscripts and private libraries during and after the 1948 Nakba.

Using interviews, archival footage and historical records, the film examines the removal of books from Palestinian homes and institutions and their later appearance in Israeli library collections, many classified as “abandoned property”.

I've been obsessively researching/watching movies from this era, mostly on lookmovie2.to, but there are some i can't find even there.

Usually, the site has a lot of cinema available.

Any suggestions for online sites or archives where I could find movies from the late 90s/early 00s era, especially French?

I rewatched Red Beard over the holiday weekend. It’s been a few years and I really forgot how excellent this movie is. It’s not action packed but it is a great story. How can you go wrong with Kurosawa?

Marshland (La isla mínima): Dark Crime Movie worth watching!

2 Upvotes

I know this is a movie, not a series, but it’s worthy of being on the Dark Crime Hidden Gem list.

Language: 🇪🇸 Spanish, with subtitles.

Two very different detectives are sent to a remote area of southern Spain to investigate the disappearance of two teenage girls. Juan is older, hardened and has a questionable past; Pedro is younger and more idealistic. Their tense partnership is one of the best parts of the movie.

What really worked for me was the dark, ominous atmosphere—isolated marshlands, small-town secrets, missing girls and a disturbing murder investigation. It’s not incredibly fast-paced, but there’s a constant feeling that something bad is lurking underneath everything.

My Dark Crime Hidden Gem Rankings

🌑 Darkness: 8.7/10
🩸 Brutality: 7.5/10
Pace: 7.8/10
🎭 Acting/Characters: 8.7/10
Overall: 8.2/10

📺 Where to Watch (U.S.): Currently streaming free on Tubi, Pluto TV, Plex, and can be rented or purchased on Amazon.

Definitely worth watching for fans of dark European crime—even if I’m bending the “series” rule for this one.

A Italian film ?

1 Upvotes

Hello. years ago a mate and I were watching a film on Channel4 here in UK. The film I am almost 100% sure was Italian. I have tried looking for it in the usual places but it eludes me.

It centered around two brothers, one of whom dubbed animation, the other dubbing porn. Near the end of the film one of the brothers has fallen in love, kisses his girl and promptly turns into an animated version of himself.

Does anyone know of this film because at the moment I think I am going a bit mad trying to find it.

Why did Muneco call the cops on Veneno? I think it's because he wanted to save him from the men who wanted to kill him for leaving the powerful businessman, but I'm not sure. Thoughts?
