My attempt at creating an introduction to Asian cinema.
I included a variety of genres, and a mixture of arthouse and mainstream films, with a limit of 1 film per director. 25 countries are represented. The list is in chronological order.
I used several lists to help me make this list, but I didn't use any exact formula, so some of the choices are arbitrary.
Pssst, want to check out the mjf314's Introduction to Asian Cinema list in our new look?
