At the start of this new month, we're in the last part of the summer, and so it's time to hand down the ten movies for August, which fall under the theme of "Going Global." That means that for your movie binge this month, each choice will take you to a different country, where they speak a different language, so if you're anti-subtitles, this won't be the month for you. Foreign-language films rue the day here, and we have some of the very best, like Amelie, Run Lola Run, and The Barbarian Invasions, alongside classics like La Dolce Vita (above), Seven Samurai, Fanny and Alexander and The Spirit of the Beehive. Each transports you to another place and sometimes another time, and so for the last month of summer you can spend it going on a worldwide cinematic vacation, even if you can't make it for the real thing. Read more about this month's theme at our Movies For Every Month page and click here for the full list of ten movies to see in August (complete with their original trailers). Here's to the dog days of summer. Happy Movie Watching!
