You've found your people OP - Train to Busan is mentioned quite a bit on here and for good reason (it's bloody amazing). I loved The Lobster, odd but fantastic.

I'm going for Sightseers, Only Lovers Left Alive and The Taking of Deborah Logan/Rare Exports (although the latter is a bit more popular).

Has anyone seen Blue is the Warmest Colour? The sex scenes were unexpectedly intense. Even though I'm not a lesbian, through watching the film, it feels like I now know exactly what the experience is like to be fingered and to have my clit licked for hours upon hours. The sex scenes are more real than any amateur or professional porn movie.

I'm not sure Once Were Warriors could be accurately described as "fabulous". Definitely a powerful film. Darklands is purely in Maori, set pro-European, and explores warrior culture and mysticism.

I think that was her yes. Different types of films entirely though. Think POALOF was good, better than Girlhood for me. Makes it into my top two for French language lesbian love drama category for sure.

Brazil. Terry Gilliam is the most stunning off the wall director, all his films are perfect.

Portrait of a woman on fire. Brilliantly observed developing lesbian relationship, deliberate absence of music.

Monos. Amazing film about young Columbian FARQ terrorists. One of the actors is an actual ex-terrorist. See if you can guess who.

Also, agree with those praising Blue is the Warmest Colour. There is an electrifying scene based on eye contact when the characters are in the school canteen, which vividly evokes raw attraction.
