I'm learning French and want to watch French movies. Can you recommend me some? They can be from all genres, from the 1990s to today. I've already seen Amelie. Merci :)

You have Micmacs by the same director as Amalie and then Banlieue 13 and Banlieue 13 Ultimatum if you want
something with more action :-)

My favorite Frech film so far is Jeux d'enfants. I can also recommend Effroyables jardins but I warn you; it's a tearjerker!

My favorite is "Il y a longtemps que je t'aime" (usually listed as "I've loved you so long"), with Kristen Scott Thomas
(yes, she has a slight accent when she speaks French). It's a drama centered around family members -- not a lot of
action but with a great story line that develops over time.

Any of the film's in Kieslowski's "three colors" trilogy: Bleu, Blanc
(actually, I'd say most of this one is in Polish, but there is some French), and
Rouge. Also The Diving Bell and the Butterfly. And if you like
gore/horror check out Inside, Martyrs, and High Tension. There's
also Irreversible, as well as Caché and Code Unknown (these two by
Michael Haneke). Oh yeah, Sheitan is another one if you're looking for something
bizarre...
