	Bounce Ko Gals (1998)			Not Rated
Film portrays a Japan that seems incredulously strange yet familiar to our culture.
	Baran (2001)
Unrequited love found in a barren land of poverty and desperation. This film puts into perspective the little things we take for granted, it is a transformation of selfishness to unconditional giving.
	In the Mood for Love (Criterion Collection) (2000)
The musical score is seductively hypnotic, a counterpoint to a romance forbidden, like Cobras unfurling, you're trapped before the first bite.
	The Eel (1997)			Not Rated
There is a reason why Koji Yakusho is considered a great actor...the scenes move at their own pace, much like an eel, slithering through the waters of a deep ocean.
	Il Mare (2000)			Not Rated
Lovely sceneries of snow and light. High cream for a cake with no filling.
	6ixtynin9 (1999)
What would you do if you found $25,000 cash on your doorstep? Crooks beware, this lady keeping the dough and the suspense rise!
	The Sea is Watching (2002)
Heartache and the Sea are the true constants for Geisha living
	Warm Water Under a Red Bridge (2001)			Not Rated
With water filling inside her, Saeko's only relief comes from shoplifting and lifting shop!
