World films are far better than most of the big budget cobblers Hollywood churns out.
Thrillers, horror, comedy etc.
BBC4 is great for TV drama as well Engrenages (Spiral) Forbrydelsen (The Killing), Borgen, Bron/Broen (The Bridge), Inspector Montalbano, Ófærð (Trapped) etc.
In addition Les Revenants (The Returned), Les hommes de l'ombre (Spin), Blå ögon (Blue Eyes), and Professor T have been good on More4 recently.

Best recent film I've seen is Der kommer en dag (The day will come) Set in a boys home in 1960s Demark, brutal and violent, with great acting from the youngsters.

Best TV show by a mile is Braquo, I loved Spiral. but this is something else. Corrupt police and extreme violence . Possibly the best TV series I've ever seen.

Pour Elle - an excellent French thriller about a husband trying to free his wrongly imprisoned wife from jail. A disastrous remake - The Next Three days - starring Russell Crowe has since been made.
Anthony Zimmer - another French thriller, about the Russian mafia, plastic surgery and money laundering. Hammed up beyond belief in the Johnny Depp and Angelina Jolie remake The Tourist.
