Title: Pather Panchali

Director: Satyajit Ray

Date: 1955

Plot: Impoverished priest Harihar Ray, dreaming of a better life for himself and his family, leaves his rural Bengal village in search of work.

Title: Pierrot Le Fou

Director: Jean-Luc Godard

Date: 1965

Plot: Pierrot escapes his boring society and travels from Paris to the Mediterranean Sea with Marianne, a girl chased by hit-men from Algeria. They lead an unorthodox life, always on the run.

Fun fact: Despite continual claims that Godard shot the majority of his films without scripts or preparation, actress Anna Karina has subsequently claimed that they were in fact very carefully planned out to the smallest of details, with an almost obsessive level of perfectionism.

Title: Close-Up

Director: Abbas Kiarostami

Date: 1990

Plot: The true story of Hossain Sabzian that impersonated the director Mohsen Makhmalbaf to convince a family they would star in his so-called new film.

Fun fact: In the final scene outside the jail when Sabzian is surprised and touched to meet the real director he had been impersonating, Mohsan Makhmalbaf, we don't hear most of their talk because (we're told) the sound equipment was faulty. In reality, Kiarostami just didn't want to leave the dialogue in, because it didn't come off well: Sabzi was genuinely moved to meet his idol and spoke from his heart, but Makhmalbaf was just repeating scripted lines, so the dialogue didn't work.

Title: Some Like It Hot

Director: Billy Wilder

Date: 1959

Plot: When two male musicians witness a mob hit, they flee the state in an all-female band disguised as women, but further complications set in.

Fun fact: Marilyn Monroe wanted the movie to be shot in color (her contract stipulated that all her films were to be in color), but Billy Wilder convinced her to let it be shot in black and white when costume tests revealed that the makeup that Tony Curtis and Jack Lemmonwore gave their faces a green tinge.

Title: Playtime

Director: Jaques Tati

Date: 1967

Plot: Monsieur Hulot curiously wanders around a high-tech Paris, paralleling a trip with a group of American tourists. Meanwhile, a nightclub/restaurant prepares its opening night, but it's still under construction.

Fun fact: The elaborate set of Tativille had its own roads, electrical systems and - in one of the office buildings - a fully working elevator.
