Every Resnais film is impressive, only ones that I love are Muriel, maybe Love Unto Death.

If I feel like some Duras or Robbe-Grillet, I'd prefer to watch their own films rather than these.

Not a sentiment you hear every day

The key sentiment was "If I feel...", I'm only occasionally in that mood.

red desert and exterminating angel are my favorite movies from their respective directors. hard to choose between the two

exterminating angel is like a twilight zone episode (complimentary)

Wow! Anyone who hasn't seen the Kiarostami should try to asap! It's amazing!

I'm watching it tonight.
The Exterminating Angel will probably get my vote. Red Desert will definitely earn a laff (I adore L'Avventura and L'Eclisse but when Antonioni goes sour for me I can't stop being amused).

"exterminating angel is like a twilight zone episode (complimentary)"
lol, that is completely correct

I always think of the rich rotter laughing as they conclude that the damage done to the window was by "a passing Jew." That's perfect to describe this milieu.

I'd like to give Memories of Underdevelopment recognition, but I regret I haven't watched it yet

More than for its Godard-indebted tricks, the film was useful for showing what Cuba looked like in that interzone just before and just after Castro declared himself a Communist.

Sad that Red Desert only got my vote, sadder that City of Sadness got none.

I was going to vote for it, but forgot to vote. I think it is much better than BN
