Alicia Malone-TCM on-air host (including the network's weekly TCM Imports series)-offers movie buffs and streaming binge-watchers just discovering the joy of foreign films an essential, accessible guide to an eclectic selection of great cinema from around the world.
TCM Imports is an essential, accessible guide to an absorbing selection of great cinema from around the world-curated by Turner Classic Movies host, entertainment journalist, and author Alicia Malone, for movie buffs and those just discovering the joy of foreign films.
International cinema offers a one-of-a-kind window to the world, allowing viewers to experience foreign cultures and unique expressions of cinematic art, but it can feel daunting to approach for newcomers or to expand upon even for seasoned movie buffs. Let TCM Imports be your guide to a wide-ranging and engrossing collection of movies from around the world. Featuring films from every continent, touching on international waves-including but by no means limited to those renowned from Europe-and spanning a century of moviemaking, this resource is comprehensive but accessible.
The contents are an eclectic list with films that have been called "high art," some "low art," and some cult movies. There are obvious choices and some weird ones, but all are a good time, and all will inspire you to explore a different side of cinema. Each movie is covered with just enough description to get you excited (no spoilers!); behind-the-scenes stories; background on the filmmakers, stars, genres, and movements the films were a part of; and illustrated by full-color and black-and-white photos. With a thematic organization by seasons and moods inspired by time of year, get set to enjoy a movie per week for a year of foreign treasures, or dive into a binge-watch, if that's your preference.
Among the films included: Amelie (2001), Ikiru (1952), Lady Snowblood (1973), The Girls (1968), In the Mood For Love (2000), Ali: Fear Eats the Soul (1974), Bicycle Thieves (1948), Daisies (1966), Spring in a Small Town (1948), Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge (1995), Late Spring (1949), Went the Day Well? (1942), The Passion of Joan of Arc (1928), Black Girl (1966), The Young Girls of Rochefort (1967), Purple Noon (1960), Cléo From 5 to 7 (1962), Parasite (2019), L'Avventura (1960), Metropolis (1926), The Rules of the Game (1939), Devi (1960), Death of a Cyclist (1955), Pale Flower (1964), Fanny and Alexander (1982), Black Christmas (1974), My Night at Maud's (1969)
