Hello, everyone I am looking for some leftist films from non-socialist countries as part of my research on the international Communist movement, thank you for your help. Here are a few I’ve seen and I think they’re good:

O Lucky Man! 1973

Another Country 1984 (Based on real history, story of Guy Burgess one of the Cambridge Five)

Good bye, Lenin! 2003(Not exactly a leftist movie, but worth watching)

Léon Morin, prêtre 1961

    i’m a big fan of Ken Loach, sometimes not overtly leftist but always working class-oriented. Plus the guy was super nice when we got the chance to meet him so i like him on a personal level.

      This seems to be a common problem of “leftist” directors in the 21st century. I can’t entirely agree with them. For example, I admire Michael Moore for exposing the evils of capitalism, but his views on China really makes me uncomfortable.
