Honestly, I think these are my favorite as well. I might switch the order around, if you ranked them, but I love each one of these films.

what? no Alphaville?

Heh, check it out, here's IHRM to tell us how much Godard sucks. Go ahead, IHRM, I need a laugh.

I just rather it'd be a Five Favorite Bergman thread. That's all.

You can make one; I will gladly participate therein.

Well Godard its not for everyone..i used to hate his movies and, actually, a lot of them are just experiments gone wrong.
But the guy has such a vast filmography is impossible not to have some bad ones, and its also impossible not to acknowledge the weight of his figure in modern cinema.

He´s an artist.

I am only familiar with sixties Godard. I just love the playfulness, the pure cinema. Sixties Godard is never theatre or literature or painting or music- it's always cinema. It's fun and it goes to fascinating places. Sometimes frenetically paced, other times we just stop to stare at and admire a beautiful woman. Under all the games (eventually above all the games in the later years) is still a political/moral critique and conscience.
These are important films, politically and cinematically.

Besides Jean Seberg (Breathless) and Anna Karina (My Life to Live), who are two of the most beautiful women I've seen on the screen, I find both movies to be pretty boring.

Anna Karina may be the most beautiful woman ever.

I've only seen four, so here's my list.

"First Name: Carmen"
"Breathless"
"Band of Outsiders"
"Alphaville"

I'd be up for this.

Naw, I wouldn't feel right starting a Bergman. I've only seen nine of his films. And I need to revist some of them. But I remember Wildstrawberries being my favorite.

Whoa, whoa, whoa! Take it to the Bergman thread, bub.

BUMP

1. Pierrot le fou
2. Breathless
3. Alphaville
4. Band of Outsiders
5. Masculin, feminin

Also, that Bergman thread should have happened. So I think I will make it.
