Whenever someone is asking me about favourite movies, these two come to my mind. Maybe not all time favourite, but definetly left something in my heart:

La migliore offerta - outstanding Geoffrey Rush performance

Things We Lost in the Fire - great acting by Halle Berry and Benicio Del Toro, and a tormenting sadness all throughout.

Some of my favorites.

“Arizona Dream” and “Underground” by Emir Kusturitza
"Walking through H" and “Drowning by Numbers” by Peter Greenaway
"Delicatessen" by Jean-Pierre Jeunet/Marc Caro
"Kin-dza-dza" and “Слёзы капали” (Tears were Falling) by Georgiy Daneliya
"Brazil" by Terry Gilliam
"Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter… and Spring" by Kim Ki-duk
"Шапито-шоу" (Сhapiteau Show) by Sergey Loban
"The Secret Adventures of Tom Thumb" by Dave Borthwick
"Der Himmel über Berlin (Wings of Desire)" by Wim Wenders
"Straight Story" by David Lynch
"Yatinsotests"

and many many more :slight_smile:
