[Peng]

1. The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly (1966)
2. Wild River (1960)
3. Only Angels Have Wings (1939)
4. Blue Velvet (1986)
5. Rio Bravo (1959)
6. Red River (1948)
7. For a Few Dollars More (1965)
8. The Philadelphia Story (1940)
9. The China Syndrome (1979)
10. Holy Motors (2012)

[Russ]

1, Li'l Quinquin (Bruno Dumont, 2014)
2. The Forbidden Room (Maddin, Johnson, 2015)
3. Khrustalyuv, My Car! (German, 1998)
4. Wild Geese (Toyoda, 1953)
5. The Bed You Sleep In (Jon Jost, 1993)
6. On the Silver Globe (Zulawski, 1988)
7. Romance in a Minor Key (Käutner, 1943)
8. Borgman (van Warmerdam, 2013)
9. Liza the Fox-Fairy (Mészáros, 2015)
10. Taxidermia (Pálfi, 2006)

Spinal. You need to see Dumont's Li'i Quinquin -- it riffs on Twin Peaks, Fargo, and True Detective, all while adding a layer of social consciousness that seems to connect directly into the nefarious goings-on.
