The Clue movie? Oh, this is for the teens. For the other, obviously Parasite if anyone is out there who hasn't seen it yet.

I’ve run out of ideas Rare Exports I guess it's 14 years old but I'd add it to the "non-US" movies too. e: Tucker & Dale vs. Evil Azhais fucked around with this message at 03:20 on Apr 5, 2025 |

Memoria, my pick for best film in general from the last ten years, annoying to track down in the US though because it's not on streaming. You can import the UK bluray (region free) or use Other Means pretty easily though. Fallen Leaves, very heartwarming Aki Kaurismaki film Il Buco, very little dialogue, about spelunking in a very deep hole in a small italian town Days, the Tsai Ming-liang film. No dialogue at all, lots of gay yearning. Pacificiton, simultaneously very chill but with a very evil vibe to it The Novelist's Film and On The Beach at Night Alone, and a lot of other Hong Sang-soo films released in that time frame Transit, the Christian Petzold film, a very interesting adaption of a novel from 1944 that's like half-updated to modern day Mountains May Depart, story of a couple in China over the course of three time periods The Assassin, the last Hou Hsiao-hsien and extremely beautiful. Like dreaming about a Wuxia film. Benediction, Terence Davies' last feature and very heart heartbreaking. 3 Faces, Jafar Panahi film where he and the Iranian actress Behnaz Jafari (playing themselves) go to a small town to search for a girl who sent a concerning message asking them for help.

For the kids (scary, non-mystery), I bet they'd be the perfect age for Night of the Hunter. Just young enough to identify with the children, just old enough to realize it's probably the best they'll see all year.

Thanks for the teen recs! I think we’ve already watched like 90% of those. Some good, interesting picks I haven’t thought of before, though. Think we might try Raising Arizona tonight since they mostly liked O Brother Where Art Thou?
