Do like watching foreign movies? I watched the Chinese movie "Aftershock" last night and it is the only movie I ever cried out loud. I couldn't help myself. It is based on a true story about the earthquake that ravage a town in China. It is all about family, the Chinese culture and even with the subtitle I endured reading all throughout the flick, I can honestly say that it is a heart-wrenching, beautiful and incredibly made movie. I do not want to put a spoiler here as it is a "must watch movie."
Anyways, my other question is, do you recommend any other "must watch" foreign movies?

The Butterfly from Spain had me sobbing. It is about a seven year old boy who befriends an old man who is his teacher at the time of it's civil war. The Boy in the Striped Pajamas is another one about a boy befriending another boy in a Nazi concentration camp. The climaxes of both movies expresses the horrors of what silly stupid adults do and the effect on children.

I'm not that much of a cryer but i'm a fan of animation movies. I know you know those pixar and disney animations and they're great. However, i recommend you watch 'big buck bunny' and 'sintel'. They're animation shorts with great stories. Visit my website. You'll find them there.
