Obviously, some countries’ favorite flicks we probably haven’t heard of.
New releases made the list in numerous countries: they include The Wild Pear Tree (from Bosnia and Herzegovina), Dying to Survive (China), Ekvtime: Man of God (Georgia), Goodachari (India), Yowis Ben (Indonesia), Deception: Oo Pel Dan Myin (Myanmar), Dilan 1990 (Singapore), and Ahlat Agaci (Sweden).
Here’s a look at the top-rated films in Europe. There are some interesting choices on here, including 1966’s The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly in Spain AND Italy. I guess it’s not too surprising that Iceland’s choice is Dancer in the Dark, which stars native entertainer Bjork.
