trainsopping, but it isn't really foreign.
Why not? I was actually kind of wondering about everyone's definition of "foreign film" as I was reading this thread.
To me, as an expat American, a foreign film has most of the following qualities:
foreign cast/director
possibly not in English
non-Hollywood studio
likely small production budget
filmed mostly/completely outside the US
released first somewhere other than the US
So most British films are foreign to me. But this is an international board, so films that I would consider as domestic are technically foreign to a lot of other people and vice versa, LOL. But I noticed that no one is picking the formulaic, mass market Hollywood releases. It's definitely an arthouse/indie list so far. And most faves seem to be in a language other than English.
