Some great movies there. So nice to see 'Il Sorpasso', a wonderful comedy from Dino Risi. For much of my life, I struggled to see the films of Risi and his comic contemporaries in Italy as their films were rarely made available on video with English subtitles. Nowadays, the situation's a lot better thanks to dvd, where you sometimes get numerous subtitle options.

Indochine (1992) might be too well known for this.
Frantz (2016) is a fine film set in post-WW1 Germany and France,
Come and See (1985) is one of the greatest war films.
Wadjda (2012) is a wonderful film about a girl in Saudi Arabia.

Nankyoku Monogatari (Antarctica), Desyat Negrityat (the only faithful version of "Ten Little Indians), They Fought For Their Country, Five Deadly Venoms, Dragon Swamp, Death Duel, Avenging Warriors of Shaolin, Zu Warriors of the Magic Mountain (which I believe "The Force Awakens" may be a remake of), Mothra, most of the atmospheric Japanese monster movies.
Now, do British films count? Like "Went the Day Well"? And I'm not sure if "49th Parallel" is foreign or just international.

Like I usually say, "If you're not sure, just post it".. I like your list. I didn't put many of my favorite De Sica's, but the lesser known (some which are favs)... Someone recommended me "Katharina Blum", and have had it sitting.
I just saw "Love In The City", the first one of those Italian anthology segments. It was damn good, 8/10.. It's on Amazon Prime.
