Kenji's The Caucasus
Favs/dislikes: 2:0. This neglected but fascinating region with high mountains and beautiful scenery, between the Black and Caspian seas, has produced some extraordinary and exceptional films. Most essential first here, the rest in year order. Sorry, I have let this list slip, will update to include more recent films soon. I thought we already had a Caucasus list here, we do have some that cover the area along with others, but i can’t locate one on the Caucasus alone. Turkey is on the edge of the Southern Caucasus, and to the North, Russia; here it’ll just be Georgia, Armenia and Azerbaijan, indigenous directors like Paradjanov, Kalatozov, Iosseliani, Abuladze, Peleshian and a couple of films by Atom Egoyan who is of Armenian heritage. I’m not including films set elsewhere, for instance Iosseliani’s French films, and Kalatozov’s in Russia (The Cranes are Flying…) and Cuba (I am Cuba), but i am including films by other Europeans like Since Otar Left and Journey to Armenia. See Noema’s list Georgian Cinema and "Kolar’’s list CINEMA OF AZERBAIJAN, invaluable resources that fill major gaps here. Good to see lots of Azerbaijani films now added to database. Parajanov’s Ukrainian-set Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors is a must-see too. The Iranian film Bashu the Little Stranger may also be of interest as much of it takes place in the Northern region of Gilan, which is next to the Caspian Sea and is thus culturally contiguous with the Caucasus (thanks to Chai Wallah for that info). The list is separated into a Top 14 and the rest, with both sections listed chronologically. Missing from imdb (mostly shorts): #70 Biri Vardi, Biri Yoxdu... (1967 Eldar Quliyev) #97 Untitled (1976 Hamlet Hovsepian) #119 Tənha narın nağılı [Tale of the Lonely Pomegranate Tree] (1984 Şamil Mahmudbəyov & Hasanaga Turabov) #150 A Night at Parajanov Museum (1998 Roman Balayan) #157 Impressions from Rustaveli (2001 Nana Tchitchoua) #186 Mayak [The Beacon] (2012 Fariz Ahmedov) #190 Ert katss vukvardi [One Man Loved Me] (2012 Ana Urushadze) -

Visual History of Brazilian Cinema
Favs/dislikes: 11:0. "Is it possible to outline the face and ideas of a truly Brazilian cinema? Yes, it may be possible if we examine the vigorous and original image of the country formed by the films in almost a century of Brazilian movie existence. In different times and under various perspectives, the screen portrayed contrasts and complexities, contradictions and perplexities of the people and the nation." Lost films: O Guarani (1926) Barro Humano (1929) Acabaram-se os Otários (1929) Favela do Meus Amores (1935) Cidade-Mulher (1936) Noites Cariocas (1936) O Bobo do Rei (1937) Banana-da-Terra (1939) O Brasileiro João de Souza (1944) Moleque Tião (1943) Samba em Berlim (1943) Este Mundo É um Pandeiro (1947) Inconfidência Mineira (1948) -
Kinema Junpo's Top 200 Japanese Films - Readers
Favs/dislikes: 7:0. キネマ旬報 読者が選んだ心に残る日本映画 Source is the list on Mubi, but that's not the original source. List can also be found halfway down on this page, in Japanese:[url=https://amasakichannel.web.fc2.com/movieN/prize/2009e.html]キネマ旬報 読者が選んだ心に残る日本映画[/url] (including accurate placement of each film, with ties) As best as I can tell, this poll is from 2009. It might be [url=https://www.amazon.co.jp/%E3%82%AA%E3%83%BC%E3%83%AB%E3%82%BF%E3%82%A4%E3%83%A0%E3%83%BB%E3%83%99%E3%82%B9%E3%83%88-%E6%98%A0%E7%94%BB%E9%81%BA%E7%94%A3200-%E6%97%A5%E6%9C%AC%E6%98%A0%E7%94%BB%E7%AF%87-%E3%82%AD%E3%83%8D%E6%97%AC%E3%83%A0%E3%83%83%E3%82%AF/dp/4873766958]here[/url] Ningen no jôken trilogy is counted as one entry. Differences from the Mubi list: • Some films are in a different order, since I took the order from the other page. • Mubi is missing a few films from the other list, some of which are mentioned at the top as not being on the site, and others omitted altogether. • Mubi includes [url=https://www.icheckmovies.com/movies/four+dimensions+of+greta/]Four Dimensions of Greta[/url], a British film that is almost certainly an error. • Mubi includes [url=https://www.icheckmovies.com/movies/kagirinaki+hodo/]限りなき鋪道 (Kagirinaki hodô/Street Without End 1934)[/url] whereas the other source seems to include [url=https://www.icheckmovies.com/movies/kagirinaki+zenshin/]限りなき前進 (Kagirinaki zenshin/Unending Advance 1937)[/url]. • Mubi includes [url=https://www.icheckmovies.com/movies/fufu/]夫婦 (Fûfu/Husband and Wife 1953)[/url] whereas the other source seems to include [url=https://www.icheckmovies.com/movies/meoto+zenzai/]夫婦善哉 (Meoto zenzai/Marital Relations 1955)[/url]. • Mubi includes [url=https://www.icheckmovies.com/movies/kyoshin/]鏡心 (Kyôshin/Mirrored Mind (2004)[/url], which is not listed in the other source. • Mubi includes [url=https://www.icheckmovies.com/movies/nabbie+no+koi/]ナビィの恋 (Nabbie no koi/Nabbie's Love 1999)[/url], which is not listed in the other source. -
