Removing the non-English titles would be amazing actually. I’m going to include the original titles in the final presentation, but everything in my spreadsheet is in English. Thank you for the offer! Great list btw.

Removing the non-English titles would be amazing actually. I’m going to include the original titles in the final presentation, but everything in my spreadsheet is in English. Thank you for the offer! Great list btw.
Greg you are truly a list tabulator's dream! Director, country and year all included in your easily separated list!

You seem to have skipped 55?
Sorry for the error. My #55 should be Nymphomaniac. Excel didn't find a match (a counterpart) from my movie list (because Nymphomaniac has two parts) so the row was left with error (and I didn't notice that).

I also corrected one director:
151. Aurora | Miia Tervo | (2019) (I like Aurora by Christi Puiu too but it's not in my top 200 of the decade).

Thanks for the detailed, lengthy lists, Greg! Is it possible that you could elaborate on the films from the decade that correspond to the decisions above? I only know that The Lighthouse would fall under Willem Dafoe. Thanks in advance!

Hi prosecutorgodot - sorry for the delayed response. Some comments on the above:

Lim Giong - Known for his work on the films of two major Chinese directors (Jia Zhangke and Bi Gan) and a major Taiwanese director (Hou Hsiao-hsien)

Alexandre Desplat - Scored multiple films for Wes Anderson (Moonrise Kingdom, The Grand Budapest Hotel, Isle of Dogs), Roman Polański (The Ghost Writer, Venus in Fur, Based on a True Story, An Officer and a Spy), and Matteo Garrone (Reality, Tale of Tales), as well as Malick's The Tree of Life and Gerwig's Little Women.

Stefan Will - Works with German director Christian Petzold (Barbara, Phoenix, Transit)

Willem Dafoe - I considered his work in black comedies, including The Lighthouse, as you mentioned, as well as Nymphomaniac, and Paul Schrader's underrated Dog Eat Dog; in two biographical portraits of eccentric personalities - Pasolini in Ferrara's film, Van Gogh in At Eternity's Gate; as a sympathetic oddball in The Florida Project and Motherless Brooklyn; in a relatively straightforward dramatic role in A Most Wanted Man; and in a minor role as a cartoonish villain in The Grand Budapest Hotel.

Kirin Kiki - A bit of a sentimental choice, I suppose, since she died recently, but a fantastic actor nonetheless. Known for her work with Hirokazu Koreeda, especially Shoplifters and After the Storm.

Ventura - Has worked exclusively with Pedro Costa, essentially playing himself in several of Costa's continuing series of films documenting & dramatizing the lives of Lisbon's Cape Verdean immigrants. He has a spectral screen presence, haunting every frame he's in.

Before last week, 2 of the best films of the last decade. Now they've become even more important. To get the bigger (motion) picture.
