Ridley Scott's Alien (1979) is a slow-burn haunted-house film set aboard a grimy space freighter, and it is still the benchmark for science fiction horror.

All About My Mother is Pedro Almodóvar's Oscar-winning melodrama about a grieving nurse and the women who take her in, and perhaps his most generous film.
★★★★½
Edward Berger's All Quiet on the Western Front is a harrowing, Oscar-winning German take on Remarque's novel that strips the First World War of any glory.

★★★★½
Amélie is Jean-Pierre Jeunet's candy-coloured Montmartre fairy tale about a shy waitress who meddles in strangers' lives, and it still charms decades later.
★★★★½
American History X is Tony Kaye's searing drama about a former neo-Nazi trying to save his younger brother, driven by Edward Norton's ferocious performance.

Vivian Qu's Angels Wear White is a quietly furious Chinese drama about two girls assaulted in a seaside motel and the teenage witness who says nothing.
★★★★☆

★★★½☆
Luc Besson's Anna is a slick Cold War assassin thriller about a KGB killer posing as a Paris model: stylish, twisty fun, though very familiar territory.
