Underground:

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0114787/

Its the story of a people, a humanist film made from love and borne out of grief.

House of Flying Daggers?!?! I'd give that film like 1/5

Ladri di biciclette (1948) aka The Bicycle Thief

All of the Sergio Leone westerns

oh, and for sheer fun (along the same lines as battle royale but not as good)

Juyuso seubgyuksageun (1999) aka Attack the gas station!

among those listed so far, Spring summer winter fall.. and spring is the best of those most likely to escape your notice. I don't remember off the top of my head now, but I assume City of God was on someone's list b/c I don't think that's a movie OOT slept on.
