    Added more to the list above:
    Harakiri; Masaki Kobayashi; 1962; 133

    A must watch. This is an incredible film about a samurai cunningly exposing the hypocrisy of a powerful house that allowed a destitute samurai to commit harakiri.

     

    L’Argent; Robert Bresson; 1983; 83

    Counterfeit notes are passed around a French neighborhood and an innocent man becomes the victim.

     

    Vagabond; Agnès Varda; 1985; 105

    With a mixture of styles, Varda forces the audience to come to terms with a woman’s vagrancy. Is her condition forced on her, or is she living according to her idea of freedom?
