Favourite Films: 1956
I’ve not quite finished watching all the films I have from 1956, I still need to watch Powell and Pressburger’s The Battle Of The River Plate, but I’m gonna go ahead and post my favourites anyway. So, here are my top 5:
#1 A Man Escaped (dir. Robert Bresson)
#2 Aparajito (dir. Satyajit Ray)
#3 The Burmese Harp (dir. Kon Ichikawa)
#4 Bob Le Flambeur (dir. Jean-Pierre Melville)
#5 Flowing (dir. Mikio Naruse)
Some notable films from 1956 which I want to see but haven’t yet:
Beyond A Reasonable Doubt (dir. Fritz Lang) and The Killing (dir. Stanley Kubrick)
