Fai seung dat yin (1998)
An apt title.

This flick starts off as a typical Hong Kong cop movie, with a dream team of post-unification stars as the good guys: Patrick Yau (who also directs), Lau Ching-Wan and Eric Tsang. There are all the staples -- nasty villains, a beautiful love interest, lots of gats blazing. But you know what? The predictable plot falls apart and leaves you agape, wondering what will happen next -- and the ending... well, I'll let you see the end for yourself.

Meshes of the Afternoon (1943)
Brilliant avant garde film-making.

Comfortable domesticity collides with a quiet horror in Meshes of the Afternoon, Maya Deren's amazing, disturbing and profoundly innovative work. Meshes influenced a whole generation of filmmakers but is now largely unknown outside of film school. See it if you can.
