Sergio Leone's Dollar Trilogy.
Wong Kar Wai: Days of Being Wild, In the Mood for Love, 2016
Les Trois Couleurs by Kiezlowsky.
No, I can't vote for the Godfather because Part 3 was too weak.

'Night Of The Demons' is probably my favourite horror trilogy. But I like some informal genre trilogies like John Carpenter's 'Apocalypse' trilogy, Lucio Fulci's 'Apocalypse' trilogy, also the interlinked war story trilogies from Andrzej Wajda, Miklos Jancso and Istvan Szabo. I'd like to say Dario Argento's 'Three Mothers' trilogy as I consider the first two films to be masterpieces (like 'The Godfather' trilogy) but I feel it's let down badly by the third part. Another informal trio I love immersing myself in is Alan Pakula's desperately compulsive 'Paranoia' trilogy.

Never heard of the last trilogy you mentioned. Will really have to look for it. Other than that, I have another one for you. I belong to the minority who prefers '2046' to 'In the Mood for Love'.

As far as older films go, the Godfather films and the Man with No Name trilogy are at the top. Followed by Richard Thorpe's swashbuckler series with Robert Taylor (Ivanhoe; Knights of the Round Table; Quentin Durward) and the Sinbad movies that Ray Harryhausen.

The Linklater Celine & Jesse series BEFORE SUNRISE, BEFORE SUNSET, and BEFORE MIDNIGHT - which bucks the usual trend in that the films get better as the series progresses. And Patty, Laverne & Maxine Andrews made a great trilogy too: Here they are in BUCK PRIVATES

I have a personal unofficial trilogy -
Citizen Kane The Bad and the Beautiful The Carpetbaggers
All 3 - 1 are fictionalized versions of real people. 2 show that "success" comes at great personal cost. 3 are fantastic entertainments as well as great movies.

That's a great box set there Aussie The "film a clef" collection, maybe? I'm sure there was a user review on imdb1 of THE CARPETBAGGERS entitled "CITIZEN KANE - but in colour!!" . There is definitely one called " I was (CARPET)BEGGING for more!!"

Has anyone here heard of the three post-war films of Fred Zinneman as a trilogy?
The Search (1948) Act of Violence (1949) The Men (1950) I would add Teresa (1951) and make it a quartet. All four of these movies deal with veterans' problems after the war.
With the exception of the those 'Butch' Jenkins movies that followed, Zinneman never made any real "clunker" feature films after these post-war movies.
Zinneman ranks up there with the very best directors...even having a "trilogy" (and many shorts) in his opus vitae.

Respectfully disagree re Zinnemann's unblemished record Kiji - I'm a fan too (ETERNITY makes my all time top ten) -and I'd say he had a very good batting average - but BEHOLD A PALE HORSE is definitely in the "clunker" class chez timshel

Hou Hsiao-Hsien is probably best know for the recent The Assassin, which might just be my favorite of his work, but all his stuff is worth checking out. The Taiwanese history trilogy consists of A City of Sadness (1989), The Puppetmaster (1993) and Good Men, Good Women (1995). I'm part of the majority. In the Mood For Love would be in my all time Top 5, but 2046 is my #2 from WKW
