Place de la Republique
Sandakan No. 8
Je Tu Il Elle
Hearts and Minds
Lacombe Lucien
The Night Porter
Mahler
General Idi Amin Dada
Himiko
Alice in the Cities
Cartesius

Would love to hear what you think of Alice in the Cities. The most acclaimed on that list are probably Hearts and Minds and Lacombe Lucien.

They all seem so... depressing. I mean, I'll get to them, but after a closer look, I want something a little lighter right now.

I've only seen Oslo, but if you're in the mood for something depressing (well-done, mind you), that's your ticket.

Place de la Republique sounds light to me. And, even if it's not, at least it's short. :)

Was a huge fan of Reprise so I'm definitely leaning that way.

I've seen both and I think Oslo was better (though Elena is worth watching too).

I had this same decision two months ago. I didn't like Elena that much. Go with Oslo.
