First of all, I'm gonna get in here now and say 'Brotherhood' before anyone else does. I entirely forgot I was reading subtitles. Thought I could speak Korean for a good deal of it.

Secondly; 'The Story of the Weeping Camel', has anyone else seen this? Its a mongolian docu/film about a white camel calf who's regected by its mother. I bought it for a joke; but ended up getting really into it.

I wish I could choose some important award winning film, but for all my all time favorite (the one I can watch again and again) I'd have to pick Hard-Boiled.

Directed by John Woo and starring Chow Yun-Fat this is one amazing movie!

I can't pick one "subtitled" film since I watch nearly all my movies, whether it be my native tongue or not, with subtitles or closed captioning, if possible anyway. But I gotta say, Night Watch has one of the best (english) subtitles I've seen on an American release.

Uhm... You know they're all subtitled over here. Except Finnish movies, and children's animations (which are dubbed). So we're completely used to subs, they don't feel like an eyesore or anything, and you learn how to ignore them as well if the translation sucks. The Continental tradition of dubbing everything weirds me out though. Have you witnessed Polish dubbing? It's just one guy reading everyone's lines, with the original lines still there but muffled.

So my fave subtitled film is also "my favourite film of all time" that is "Time of the Gypsies"

LOL, that's what I was thinking. It's the only one I've seen.

Well, technically I watch every movie with subtitles.

Either Pan's Labyrinth or Gojira (called by its Japanese name to seperate it from the Perry Mason edit, 'Godzilla: King of the Monsters'). Though all most people associate with Godzilla is campy suitimation, Gojira was a heavy, relevant release for Japan in 1954. A monster released from a deep sea cleft by nuclear activity? Let the gargantuan, apocalyptic symbolism say the rest.

Akira would be up there. Hero is a breath taker. I also loved Brotherhood. I preferred The Devil's Backbone to Pan's Labyrinth as well.

Hoodwinked? That isn't subtitled...and I thought that "Piaf" or "La Vian Rose" was the best. French, with Hungarian subs.

Brotherhood rings true when I think of my favourite sub. These are Some Classics too. I plan to get a few more under my belt before the year is out. I plan to go for some listed in this thread!

Ho ho ho, some shameless self-promotion, generally in order of favourite to lesser favourite.

I watched the 'Science of Sleep' recently was pretty good and 'The Devil's Backbone'.
I wish England made more beautiful films like that, instead of just 'gritty' ones.
