Martin Scorsese's ’Foreign Film List’

In 2006, American film director Martin Scorsese sent a list of 39 essential foreign films to a young filmmaker lacking a proper culture in this field. More than an exhaustive list of "best movies", it should be seen as a tip note only. Find out which foreign films were deemed worthy to be in this list.
Foreign as for an american director, of course; the list does not include american films. Year of release given as hint for each movie. No ranking here, order (not always logical) given from the original letter. Titles are presented as typed by Scorsese (corrected when necessary). Original and english titles accepted.
The director(s)'s name(s) appears only when the title is guessed; you are only asked to guess the movies' titles. Some directors have several movies in this list.
