Rules of the Game by Jean Renoir. One of the greatest films of all time. It's absolutly phenomenal (if you haven't already seen it). or the original Beauty and the Beast, also a great french film.

The Piano Teacher? I will have to check that out.

I have a recommendation, "Love's Brother"

I watched Get Out your Handkerchiefs the other night (referred to me by good old Patches). If your looking for a light-hearted flick with a very French sensibility, it's a good one.

If your willing to go Korean, Chihwaseon is one of my favorite films ever.

Under discussion:

Get Out Your Handkerchiefs (1978)

Chihwaseon (2002)

Not to be poopy, but since some of our posters are 14 years old, it's worth mentioning:

"The Piano Teacher" is not rated but would probably receive an R for graphic scenes of sex (including flashes from pornographic videos), violence (beatings, slapping and a stabbing, as well as violence against women), crude sex talk, full male and female nudity, occasional use of strong sex-related profanity and brief gore. Running time: 130 minutes.
