After the initial list that I composed when I started this weblog 10 years ago, I recommend the following films, and most are listed in the order that I viewed them.
- Z by Costa-Gravas (This film, based on a true story in Greece, is important because it depicts how the Empire has taken over one nation at a time and is rarely featured in online film clubs based in the USA. I offer to send you my purchased film. Just write to me at ronh36@proton.me, include your address, and I'll mail it to you.)
