This is a film diary of “international” and “parallel” films that I’ve tried to maintain. The country of production of the film, the year of release and the director’s name are given alongside. All mainstream films from Hollywood are given in the “Hollywood” page (Though a lot of discrepancies persist!). Keeping record of mainstream Indian cinema has become an impossibility for me and hence completely dropped. The movies are rated using 
s. The rating may vary from 
to . The ratings may vary over time and only reflect how good I felt they were at the time of watching. Only full length feature films are rated here. Except for the influential and groundbreaking ones, short films are omitted for simplicity.

This is great, Shrikant. Great collection of movies. I’ve seen some of them, hunting for some! Anyway, in your main blog, instead catagorizing cinema by country, catagorize it as good and bad movies (just an opinion). I guess that should be good enough for any student of cinema. Kieslowsky’s movies are missing (I may have missed them). Double Life of Veronique, Three Colors, A short film about Love, Killing and Decalogue.
Anyway, keep watching and encouraging good cinema.
Cheers.

Hi Sadanand,
Thanks for visiting…Your comment reminded me that I’ve to update this page… Its been quite a while.
I’m wary for categorizing movies as good and bad since my opinion on a film grows or deteriorates with years (one always learns). So I tried to classify using an objective yardstick.
As for Kieslowski’s films, they are there in this page. And what you see on the main page isn’t a one to one review of all the titles found here (which will take years!)

A provocative list with debatable ratings and lots of unfamiliar names. You seem to have a leaning towards the first quarter century since most of your full marks seem to be in that segment.

Oh, that’s right, Mr. Rana. That’s because it is these films that have taght the generations to come what film is. And they stand the test of time too…
