The Guardian has conducted a readers’ poll of the top foreign movies of all time. Some of the usual suspects are there. Unusually, Seven Samurai doesn’t come top, that particular accolade belonging to Cinema Paradiso. Amelie is second, Seven Samurai third and City of God, one of the few films I’ve come close to walking out of, fourth. Oldboy comes in at #17. HT to Adam over at koreanfilm.org.
