This episode we decided to tackle some of our favorite films in languages other than English. It's not, strictly speaking, a top 5 list since we make an effort at variety as much as anything and Bob leaves Ozu off his list entirely. (He's still holding out for an entire episode dedicated to Ozu!) Because it's countdown episode, no listings for the films. In this, as ever was and ever will be, we spoil the movies to various degrees and in various ways. If we list a title you're meaning to see, be warned you may learn twists from us rather than from the film should you keep listening.
As promised, here's the link to the George Lucas Oldboy parody that comes up during the honorable mention section at the end.
