Apartment Zero (1988) Eccentric psychological thriller set in Argentina. Watched with Donna, who seems to enjoy these feel-bad movies a lot more than I do. 7/10
Ping Pong (2002) A good example of a unique Japanese artform: focusing on an obscure competitive endeavor to make it into an epic struggle imbued with good-hearted humor and profound philosophy. I have never seen such a stirring depiction of the way well-matched competitors transport each other into a transcendent realm of pure existence. And it's about high school table-tennis. Not entirely great but its high points are splendid. 8.5/10
