So many of his films could be on this list. "The Sacrifice" is a beautiful, beautiful film but definitely a challenge to get through. Totally true about Tarkovsky.

Talk about eschewing the "normal" Hollywood format: Tarkovsky's film are as un-Hollywood as you can get, but films like "Stalker" or "The Sacrifice" are as compelling and haunting as I've ever seen.

It definitely requires discipline to watch some of these films; I had to force myself to stay awake through Into Great Silence, but was spiritually challenged by the entire experience. Great list!
