I thought that this might be a fun idea for an accolade. Please let me know of any suitable films that you come across, in either direction. If there turn out to be too many, then I'll change it to a difference of at least 2.0.

Please note that I have only started with the films I have because they were easy to think of, as they would obviously have very high scores here.

For the better sequels accolade, I'd suggest 'Hellboy II'.

Sounds like a difficult idea, as a film's eligibility might change over time, so you'd have to keep checking them. Anyway, here's some I know of:

Santa Sangre: FWFR 5, IMDB 7.7

Down in the Valley: FWFR 5, IMDB 6.6

Santa Maradona: FWFR 4.5, IMDB 6.8

The Man in the Gray Flannel Suit: FWFR 2, IMDB 7.2

Mon Oncle d'Amerique: FWFR 2.5, IMDB 7.8

How to Live With a Vegan Without Killing Them: FWFR 0, IMDB 4.4

Thanks. I'll add those once I have computer access. It won't be too hard to keep the accolade updated. Scores on both sites are pretty stable once a few people have voted, so it won't need checking too often.

BaftaBabe, you might like to consider The Broken Hearts Club and Redbelt for your filming accolade, if one scene on a film set is sufficient.

Hmm - I can't find enough about this one; have you seen it? But I have added Redbelt. I know one of the characters in The Broken Hearts Club is listed as a photographer, but neither photography nor filmmaking appears as a keyword, so I'm guessing his profession isn't that important to the plot or theme.

Anyway, many thanks for the suggestions.

In The Broken Hearts Club, Dean Cain is an actor and is shown acting (and otherwise) on a film set.

Fine, Totally Fine features two characters making a film, although it's a bit hard to explain.

N.B. I got one of the above titles slightly wrong before.

Another possibility is Wild Blue Yonder.

What films should I watch with regard to this accolade? In other words, do you have suggestions for better films in any of the languages, or good films in others? I definitely won't change my mind for English and Hindi, and probably not for French, but I am open-minded on all the others.
