I watched "The Man Who Stole the Sun" for the first time a couple of years ago, and I can truly say it is one of my favorite films. Fun fact about the film: the car chase was actually illegally shot, with several members of the production being arrested for using their vehicles to block the entrance ramps of the highway.

That also happened in The French Connection (1971), the director wanted the reactions of pedestrians and other drivers to be authentic, a car crash during the scene was actually just someone trying to get to work when they were forced to evade the movie cars, the director stated 40 years later that he regretted putting people in danger.

That happened a lot in Hong Kong in the 70s and 80s. I was working in the police at the time and we were always coming across film makers controlling roads for filming. Once, when off duty, I pulled up at a police roadblock along Clearwater Bay Road to ask what was going on before noticing the film cameras. Wonder if i made the final cut😂

Obscure? This list literally has Speed, Easy Rider and Apocalypse Now. Great list of movies, but obscure? Only if you're very new to film and also 2 months old.

I've been looking for discussions of Deep Cover for ages. Thanks for giving it the notice it deserves.

Over the 30 years since Underground was released and I started my own journey, living across different European countries, settling for the past 2 decades in London and mysteriously finding myself, for the first time in my life, entangled with a number of British film makers, I have rarely met people who are familiar with this film! Those who knew and watched Underground are usually in some way connected to the film industry and also been familiar with the other Kusturica films. Emir Kusturica won the Can Festival’s Best Film Award with his film Times of the Gypsies which was also one of the few films ever made entirely in Romani language. It’s equally surreal, unique and beautifully made. Apart from a handful of professional actors the entire cast is selected from the regular Romani people with no previous acting experience. Between those two films Kusturica managed to make yet another unique film, this time while teaching in Hollywood and it’s called Arizona Dream. For this yet another interesting story Kusturica was able to bring together an amazing cast of the best Hollywood actors from Jerry Lewis, Jonny Depp, Liv Tyler to Fey Dunaway. The only person that is doing music for Kusturica’s films is Goran Bregovic but on this occasion Iggy Pop made a significant contribution. Following his collaboration on Arizona Dream Jonny Depp became Kusturica’s close friend to this very day. As a result Depp became also a regular guest in Serbia where not only he give support to future generations of Serbian film makers but he became an honorary citizen of Serbia. Former Yugoslavia, ever since the WWII has been one of the most prolific film producers and with AVALA STUDIOS which were at the time in the league with MGM in terms of the production quality, capacity to make epic films such as Cleopatra and the extent to which the government directly funded the film industry, pushed for artistic freedom, different genre, cinematographic quality and new ideas. Some of the most surreal ideas were explored in the Yugoslavian cinema over the years and to this day I am convinced that there’s no country that has such a great and versatile cinema collection and I’m currently watching again Jorgen Leth Perfect Human! Also, the first ever film made in Romani language that won also the Academy Award and Golden Globe Award as the best international film in a foreign language is I even met happy Gypsies directed by Alexander Petrovich. It’s been presently studied on one of the film studies degrees at the St Martin’s in London. So for those who are not familiar with other Kusturica’s films, apart from Underground I highly recommend: Times of Gypsies (in Romani language) Arizona Dream (leading Hollywood cast members) Director Emir Kusturica Music Goran Bregovic

Ive seen Underground countless times over the last 20 years since I’ve first seen it - I consider Underground the best film ever made and it’s certainly my favourite. The scene when Blacky thinks he heard his son and calls out and calls out for him “Jovo Sine Moj , Jovane” then he sees his sons reflection and falls to his death in the well. It just tears my heart out. This whole movie is so bittersweet because in the end they finally have each other but in death. A metaphor for all Jugoslavs. A few more great Yugoslav/ Serbian movies that are unmissable are Who’s Singing Over There, The Dagger, The Hornet, No Man’s Land, Pretty Village Pretty Flame, Black CatWhite Cat, Life is a Miracle, Promise Me This, Time of the Gypsies, St George Shoots the Dragon, The Trap etc

One that gets often overlooked is Time of the Gypsies. It's amazing. To me, Before Night Falls is a masterpiece as is The Diving Bell and the Butterfly by Schnabel.

As an Aussie Serb who lived in Yugoslavia as a child, I'm glad you mentioned "Underground" (funny that I think now of it there might have been a bunker near my apartment building in Belgrade - I remember some tunnels that I went down as a young boy but I don't remember that part clearly). Another cool part was when I returned to Belgrade (or as Serbs call it "Beograd"), I saw the film playing on the TV screen at a friend's 🏠. Another Serbian movie you might want to check out is a film I believe is called "Little Village, Little Flame" which is set during the Yugoslavia Wars with a group of Serb soldiers trapped in hostile territory with a dimwitted American journalist and as they spend time under fire, they have flashbacks to their pasts. My father watched it on cable TV. EDIT: The film's title is "Pretty Village, Pretty Flame". Hope more people look it up, it's a decent film.

Kusturica's Underground is nothing short of a masterpiece and definitely a must-see. Unlike his sobering Le Temps des Gitans, Underground is both charming and often hilarious, with sequences that would've made Fellini proud.

I'm shocked to se a western cinephile mention and cover Underground. It's one of our most beloved movies. And Emir Kusturica is our most talented director. I strongly recommend for anyone to catch any of his movies. He usually covers people living on the margin or some extreme bizarre situations. Also some other recommendations is "Pretty Village pretty flame" a dark and disturbing comedy set in the yugoslav wars of the 90, and one of our most emotional movies, that depicts the falling out of brotherly nations. Anything from the pen of Dusan Kovačević, and anything form the Goran Paskaljević. I'm so glad a lot of people are interested in Yugoslavian and Serbian cinematography.

... who stole* the Sun.

Really enjoyed this. I've earmarked several of these. Thank you.

Great Video, these 10 are definitely my next watches. More of this type of video, especially divided into genres or movements would be appreciated.

One of my favorite genres is dark comedy. Here are 10 amazing and underrated ones a lot more people should see. I was actually planning on adding Investigation of A Citizen Above Suspicion until I saw that you also included it in your video: 1) The Heartbreak Kid (1972) 2) In The Company of Men (1997) 3) River's Edge (1986) 4) Heavy Traffic (1973) 5) Little Murders (1971) 6) Prizzi's Honor (1985) 7) The Cook, The Thief, His Wife, and Her Lover (1989) 8) The Opposite of Sex (1998) 9) Unfaithfully Yours (1948) 10) Divorce, Italian Style (1961)

@@sifatshams1113 These are some of the movies I think can be called somewhat bold and subversive.(Except midnight special, I just love that movie). You might have seen most of them though 😅 The Fall (2006) The Wicker Man (1973) Midnight Special (2016) The Red Turtle (2016) Jallikattu (2019) - indian Patrick (2019) - belgian Deliverance (1972) Kummatty (1979) - indian *if you plan to watch kummatty don't read any reviews, every review is a spoiler, specially the letterboxd review.*

Based, also I did watch Buffalo ‘66 because of you and it is great 🔥

Just watched Overlord thanks to your recommendation and I was blown away. Thank you so much for your fantastic channel and content.

Thank you. Great list. I do not even consider most Hollywood movies to be real cinema. They are movies, not films. Many of the people who are featured in them are not actors, they are movie stars

Hi,great list! What is the background music when you present the film " Citizen out of suspicion'? It sounds amazing but I can't Shazam it because of your voice ...Thanks

Can you make a video on evangelion?

A brilliant and ecclectic collection. Thank you. One omission that would fit well into this selection is the 1989 Peter Greenaway "masterpiece", The Cook, The Thief, His Wife and Her Lover. Jaw dropping beauty juxtaposed with some of the more disturbing imagery put to film. And Helen Mirren in a carreer-highlight performance !! It is also the only film I can think of that uses wardrobe as a form of set design. Among my top 3 favourite films of all time, and must-see viewing.

Dude you got some taste finally a good list of movies that one I haven’t seen to I haven’t seen posted 1000 times before and three they look very interesting thanks for the post

It was so cool having the chimp in Underground. Having it drink from bottles was so cool.

Kino: I'm not a communist also Kino: *reccomends six pro communist movies* loud and clear comrade 😉

Leonard Schrader was a long time resident of Japan and immersed himself into Japanese subcultures, also married a local. He co-wrote the movie The Yakuza with his brother, Paul, before writing The Man Who Stole the Sun and Tora-san's Dream of Spring. Later he wrote the biopic of novelist Yukio Mishima... Mishima: A Life in Four Chapters.

Interesting film tips! Thank you🙏

You've just got yourself a new subscriber! Great video.

Deep cover...I had forgotten about this classic,,,,thanks for the reminder

I've only seen two of these movies, and they all look fantastic, so these films will be my top priority. Underground particularly looks just perfect for me right now, thank you! Also, what do you think of Shinji Somai's films? I wasn't familiar with him, but I just watched Lost Chapter of Snow and loved it, so now I'm going to slowly go through his films as well.

Okay, I am impressed. You Know your kino. Easily in the top 3 youtube film channels that I've run across. Thanks for having such discerning taste.

I haven't watched or even heard about these movies but being a cinephile I'll watch them just because you recommended it

Saw Deep Cover years ago, always remember it as a Great Movie and Fishburne & Goldblum performances as fantastic.

Very nice compilation!

Wonderful selections! Thank u!!!

Thank you for this video. I will try to watch every movie on this list. I appreciate curated selections like this and need to expand my movie list. Again thank you. I am saving this video and will watch every one of these films.

Thank you for this list of films. I think "Deep Cover" is the only one of these I've heard about, though I never saw it. Looking forward to seeing these.

I'm so happy I found this video :) Thank you!

Iam glad you mentioned plemya (the tribe). It's a great movie I watched it in 2016. No one ever talked about it so subtly as you did.

Nice selection! thx!

you were right. i have never heard of any of these films. adding every single one of these to the queue!
