Only SGN and Random Eyez seem to have the idea of this thread.

In Bruges?
Rubber? [.sic]
And Koyaan' ?

:lol:

In Bruges is constantly on Channel 4 and Sky Movies, Rubber got a massive marketing on Apple's website when it was released. Koyaan' - every stoner BA student has seen that. And as far Black Dynamite and Black Sheep? You're kidding right... Black Dynamite was the most downloaded torrent of the year on a torrent site I'm on - some 500,000 downloads in six weeks.


Anyway, one of mine would be:

Image

Soviet Union
1957
95 minutes
Black and White
1.33:1
Russian

Spine #146
SYNOPSIS: Veronica and Boris are blissfully in love, until the eruption of World War II tears them apart. Boris is sent to the front lines…and then communication stops. Meanwhile, Veronica tries to ward off spiritual numbness while Boris’s draft-dodging cousin makes increasingly forceful overtures. Winner of the Palme d’Or at the 1958 Cannes Film Festival, The Cranes Are Flying is a superbly crafted drama, bolstered by stunning cinematography and impassioned performances.


I could fill this thread on my own with films, can't be arsed to, no one will watch them :D

The Mirror (1975) Russian
A man in his forties is going to die and remembers his past. His childhood, his mother, the war, personal moments but things that also tell the story of all the Russian nation...

Original post said:
I have came across some great recs on this forum of films that either went straight to DVD or are just not too well known (Dead Man's Shoe's, Four Lions etc).
....I think that counts for the majority of films people have posted,
This thread isn't about weird obscure films.
....what you posted!

think you are the one who missed the point of the thread!
