EUROPE: a "canon"

By: Kenji


Gertrud

A mix of personal, popular, Mubi and critical favourites, aiming for some sort of canon (though canons are exclusive, can never be definitive and are made to be challenged), and with a reasonable geographical spread, though some countries under-represented. Up to 5 films per director

Films by year.

Not on mubi:

Hortobagy (Hoellering)
The Beginning (Panfilov)
Darkness in Tallinn (Jarvilaturi)

Suggestions welcome- now, which films from Iceland?

there’s also a list of the Portuguese Cinemateca’s top European films, based on a 1994 poll


L’Avventura

Amazing list, as always. One little nit-pick: surely Clair's Under The Roofs Of Paris and A Nous La Liberte merit a place?!

    Ah yes, Clair is undervalued these days but was a prominent part of the canon at one time

I would not consider Russia a European country.

    Russia, like Turkey, play in the European championships and world cup groups at football.

    Indeed, but I would not consider Turkey a European country either. Nor would I consider certain so-called Eastern European countries to be truly European.
