        It isn't recent, but I'd recommend: "Europa, Europa."
        Don't repeat it; create it.

          I enjoyed "Rochelle, Rochelle." It's about a young girl's erotic journey from Milan to Minsk.







          Or something like that. I would echo too that "2046" is worth seeing.

            A Very long Engagement is wonderful. If you saw/loved Amelie, you should definitely enjoy this.

              "The Beat that my Heart Skipped" is a remake of Toback's "Fingers" and far superior to it.

                Secuestro Express and Kontroll are a couple I've enjoyed recently.

                A Very Long Engagement and anything else in French by Jeunet or Jeunet/Caro is worth watching - Amelie, City of Lost Children, Delicatessen.

                              It's not recent, but Beat Takeshi's Kikujiro is fantastic! I think it's one of his best.
