For a nation that was badly scarred by both World Wars, is it so surprising that some of the most profound and poignant war films were made in France?
The best of Japanese cinema
sb-img-21
The cinema of Japan is noteworthy for its purity, subtlety and visual impact. The films of Ozu, Mizoguchi and Kurosawa are sublime masterpieces of film poetry.
The very best sci-fi movies

Science-fiction came into its own in B-movies of the 1950s, but it remains a respected and popular genre, bursting into the mainstream in the late 1970s.
The very best of German cinema
