In The Mood For Love and Infernal Affairs are among my most favourite movies ever, foreign or not.

Yay Infernal Affairs!!!! Leonardo DiCaprio and Matt Damon got nothing on Andy Lau and Tony Leung

My favourite is probably The Lives of Others

Wonderful film with a subtle, touching ending.

Well, Star Trek II – The Wrath of Khan has always been one of my favorite foreign language films. Also, Hitchcock's Rear Window and Vertigo. And I'm a huge fan of the Back to the Future trilogy!

Other than that I'm mostly a fan of foreign language television series, like Star Trek, Star Trek – Deep Space Nine, The Twilight Zone, Lost, Babylon 5, Homicide – Life on the Street, Seinfeld and Frasier.
