Default French movies - 11th December 2008

So I have recently discovered the world of french movies, and i must say, i'm in love!
It all started with the movies Jeux d'enfants, Amelie Poulain, and A la folie, pas du tout.. all great movies that got me hooked, and I really want to see more, so i was wondering if anyone can recommend good french movies???

Peau D'ane, les demoiselles de rochefort, Les Parapluies de Cherbourg, all in all most french flicks are chick flicks but hey there a some good classic french movies but all in all no really great ones.

A few suggestions:

Les Nuits Fauves
La Haine
Barracuda
Harry, un ami qui vous veut du bien
De battre mon coeur s'est arreté

Those are mostly recent movies, tough ones too, particularly "Les Nuits Fauves", enjoy! :)

I've always wanted to watch La fille sur le pont, will try to do so this weekend since i'm stuck in bed.

Haven't heard about Du poil sous les roses, will inquire :)

Les Rivieres Pourpres are good

Other suggestions:

Irreversible
Gazon Maudit
Va, vis et deviens
Le gout des autres
Je vais bien ne t'en fais pas
Pedale Douce (hilarious )

And did you already? Somehow I particularly like how it begins, and the ending.

It was advertised as the French version of American Pie, which is not really true, only in a sense that the movie shows the daily "adventures" and teenage problems of a 15 year-old girl. Well it is very french.
