11. The Wages of Fear

French, 1953. "In a decrepit South American village, men are hired to transport an urgent nitroglycerine shipment without the equipment that would make it safe." On the surface, it reads kind of "meh," but this film will have you sweating bullets. The 1977 U.S. remake, Sorcerer, starring Roy Scheider is pretty good, but Wages of Fear is far superior.

Also recommended but sadly not available on DVD (not sure about Netflix): The Return of Martin Guerre (French, 1982). In medieval France, a young man goes off to war, but when he returns 10 years later, his fellow villagers are unsure if he is who he says he is. Starring a young, wonderful Gerard Depardieu. (Whatever you do, avoid the U.S. remake (Sommersby) with Richard Gere and Jodie Foster. Awful.)
