  1. Beginners list needs quite an update: watch something, or better everything by Masaki Kobayashi and then add HARAKIRI, THE HUMAN CONDITION and THE INHERITANCE to the list, whilst throwing out crab like EMPIRE STRIKES BACK (seriously?), SATYRICON (Fellini has done much better!), JURASSIC PARK, etc. The APU-trilogy might also be worth a look and if you still dare watching movies from the Russian Empire I suggest to start with THE ASCENT and there are many more anti-war movies from Russia, which make western (anti?-)war movies look pretty lame ... no offence meant, just some mild suggestions. :-)
