Missing:



90/100 is better than I expected but I've been at my worst seeing things the last few years and I guess they didn't want to put too many recent ones on.

81, but most of the ones I missed are ones I have absolutely no interest in. I don't even know what Gleaners, Toni Errdman or Fish Tank are. I'm gonna assume they are boring and pretentious like most of the list.

Also missing:

In The Mood For Love
Call Me By Your Name
Yi Yi
Grizzly Man
Memories of a Murder - will watch this eventually
Melancholia - maybe
The Act of Killing
Volver
Tar
Amour
Aftersun
Best In Show - maybe
Before Sunset - will watch this eventually
A Seperation
Adaptation - maybe
Zone of Interest

I've watched half of Mulholland and Carol but turned them off. One because it sucked, and the other cause I was only ever interested in a "certain part" and lost interest after it happened.

Mostly the non-American ones haven't seen:
21. The Royal Tenenbaums (Dir: Wes Anderson)
33. A Separation (Dir: Asghar Farhadi)
35. A Prophet (Dir: Jacques Audiard)
38. Portrait of a Lady on Fire (Dir: Celine Sciamma)
40. Yi Yi (Dir: Edward Yang)
48. The Lives of Others (Dir: Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck)
57. Best in Show (Dir: Christopher Guest)
59. Toni Erdmann (Dir: Maren Ade)
75. Amour (Dir: Michael Haneke)
82. The Act of Killing (Dir: Joshua Oppenheimer)
88. The Gleaners and I (Dir: Agnès Varda)
90. Frances Ha (Dir: Noah Baumbach)
91. Fish Tank (Dir: Andrea Arnold)
99. Memories of a Murder (Dir: Bong Joon-ho)

98. Grizzly Man (Dir: Werner Herzog)

Did you dislike Magnolia and be turned off all PTAs forever or something?

Fish Tank is watchable as a "raw/poor person" British indie instead of more pretentious art movie and has a good Fassbender part, but yeah it wouldn't make the list if it was directed by a man.

Haha, actually I love Magnolia, also I think Boogie Nights is very good and I enjoyed Hard Eight.

But I didn't see Punch Drunk Love and then I started There Will Be Blood, but I kind of disliked that / was bored by the start of it, turned of the film and I haven't seen any more minutes of the PTA films since then.

I really couldn't stand Punch Drunk Love. I'd definitely go TWBB, Boogie Nights and Magnolia over it. Haven't seen his last two or The Master.

Stuffp - of the ones you havent seen I'd recommend:

48. The Lives of Others (Dir: Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck)
36. A Serious Man (Dirs: Joel and Ethan Coen)

80. Volver (Dir: Pedro Almodóvar)
83. Inside Llewyn Davis (Dirs: Joel and Ethan Coen)
86. Past Lives (Dir: Celine Song)

Thanks, I do like the Coen brothers and been meaning to see Past Lives. The others are foreigners and I could see them, but I always worry they're too artsy for me.

Volver you can skip but The Lives of Others is worth seeing. It has been about 18 years since I saw it, but it resonates. Set in 1980s cold war era East Berlin.
