<p>Sophie Scholl-Die Letzten Tage - the capture, interrogation, and trial of members of a student resistance group in Nazi Germany
Rosenstrasse - another WWII resistance story, German Aryan women married to imprisoned Jewish men
Joyeux Noel - the 1914 Christmas “truce” in the trenches
Bella Martha - this wonderful German film was redone as No Reservations with Catherine Zeta Jones; I like the original so much better
Shall We Dance - the original Japanese version, much better than the J-Lo/Richard Gere film
Ana y los Lobos - I’ve liked all of the Saura films I’ve seen (3-4), and this is the best - chilling
Il Postino - an old favorite of mine, based on one of my favorite books, the Skarmeta novella El Cartero de Neruda</p>
<p>Others mentioned Como Agua para Chocolate and In Bruges, both of which I liked a lot.</p>
