A favourite film a day for 365 days: La Jetée.
A 28 minute, black & white film consisting only - apart from one brief moment - of still photographs. A child witnesses an incident at Orly Airport and only comes to understand years later, with the aid of time travel, what it was that he saw. One of a very special, very haunting, kind.
(It's on YouTube, in good condition, and with subtitles.)

A favourite film a day for 365 days: Fellini's Roma.
Federico Fellini's vision of Rome flits from recreations of moments from his youth to outright fantasy - a papal fashion show; the highway to the city used by tanks, men pushing carts and horses running free - to a vision of its downfall, represented by a gang of leather-clad motorcycle riders. It never, ever looks less than stunning.

A favourite film a day for 365 days: The Battle of Algiers.
Now almost 60 years old, this story of the Algerian fight for independence from the French still packs a huge punch, one the grainy black & white photography only enhances.

A favourite film a day for 365 days: Madame de...
A woman sells some earrings - a present from her husband - to settle a debt... and sets in motion a chain of events that lead to sadness, love and death. A plot that could have made a silly, forgettable romcom becomes a tale of heartbreak and loss you can't - don't want to - stop watching.

A favourite film a day for 365 days: Illustrious Corpses.
If yesterday's State of Siege laid out its political tale simply and clearly, Franco Rosi's film embroils the viewer in paranoia and mystery. Yes, you learn who's killing judges - the illustrious corpses of the title - but like the detective investigating the murders, you can't prove anything and you just sink deeper and deeper into conspiracy.

A favourite film a day for 365 days: State of Siege.
Unsettling, gripping, fictionalised account of the kidnapping of a US 'diplomat' by left-wing rebels in South America, early 70s. (In reality: Uruguay, the Tupamaros.)#world #worldfilm #worldcinema #70smovies #politicalfilm #politics #frenchcinema

A favourite film a day for 365 days: 'A Man Escaped'.
A French Resistance fighter awaiting execution, surveys his cell and works out a way to escape, in a film as riveting as any straightforward thriller. (Even though I know it's about a LOT more than just that.)

A favourite film a day for 365 days: Gabbeh.
A film, a fable, told more in images than actors speaking words to propel a lot. And the images, and colours, are some of the most beautiful ever put on screen.

A favourite film a day for 365 days: Violent Cop.
A literal title translation would read, 'Warning: This Man is Wild'. A far better description of this story about a policeman who doesn't just go after criminals, but anybody he doesn't like. Kitano is stone-faced and remorseless throughout; the violence is shocking; and it's all the complete opposite of the tranquility of yesterday's choice. I love it.

A favourite film a day for 365 days: After Life.
What memory would you most want to keep? This strange, charming, alluring film is life-affirming in the best, most comforting sense. I keep coming back to it.

A favourite film a day for 365 days: High and Low.
The final confrontation between businessman and kidnapper adds that extra level of pain and anguish all the best crime stories achieve.

A favourite film a day for 365 days: Blow Up & Zabriskie Point.
One a big hit at the box office; the other a *massive* failure. I love them both equally.

A favourite film a day for 365 days: Red.
The final film in the 'Three Colours' trilogy. If Blue is 'Liberté' and White 'Egalité'- my interpretation - then Red is 'Fraternité': an understanding, acceptance and embrace of others. Which makes it all sound cold and clinically intellectual. And that's absolutely the last thing it is.
