Parasite (2019, South Korea)

still the only one that felt like an event outside the arthouse crowd. for the record, it should've won more than it did that night

Roma (2018, Mexico)

A Separation (2011, Iran)

Farhadi's other winner, The Salesman, didn't make this cut and that's the one placement I go back and forth on

Drive My Car (2021, Japan)

Son of Saul (2015, Hungary)

The Zone of Interest (2023, United Kingdom)

Amour (2012, Austria)

(upset) that this one doesn't get talked about as much as Parasite or Roma these days

Sentimental Value (2025, Norway)

The Great Beauty (2013, Italy)

All Quiet on the Western Front (2022, Germany)

gorgeous, also the one on this list I'd call more spectacle than the rest

I'm Still Here (2024, Brazil)

A Fantastic Woman (2017, Chile)

last spot and I know people will fight me on that, ranking twelve things means something's last
