"Uknown Pleasures," and "The World." This last one, I think, surpasses the earlier "Platform."
Are you familiar with Thailand's Ratanaruang? His "Last Life in the Universe" is a must-see.
I'd also highly recommend just about anything by Taiwan's Tsai Ming-Liang, especially "Rebels of the Neon God," and "What Time is it There?"
If you haven't yet experienced "Memories of Murder" by Bong Joon-Ho, you should. It's a thinking man's "Silence of the Lambs."
I'd very much welcome your film reviews.
I'll get the Brasilian satire off to you. Be warned: it's vitriolic!
(BTW, I found "Blind Shaft" superb and I'd not place the very different "Platform" above it).
