I love the newest James Bond - Casino Royale.
That is a great film - gets rid of most of the stupid and pointless humour of the Brosnan and Moore incarnations.

As Ragnorak pointed out, there are more than 2 films here. Dekalog (Decalogue) is a series of 10 films, each based on one of the 10 Commandments; Trzy Kolory (3 Colours) are Czerwony (Red), Niebeski (Blue), and Bialy (White). I don't remember which colour is which number film though, because I haven't watched any of them.
Here's my dozen Polish films...
Psy (Dogs) and Psy 2;
Kieslowski's Rejs (The Cruise), Dzieciol (Woodpecker), Amator (Camera Buff); A Short Film About Love;

And?
Both are a unity, anyway.
For example, even though white is lacking some of the power of blue and red, they still are a united message KK wants to push through.
Thus, they may be separate pieces, as with the D., yet I like the whole block.
Just a loose selection, based on the watching again and again—
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon
The Matrix (part 1 only)
The Last Samurai (Ken Watanabe’s incredible acting)
The Lion in Winter (incredible acting, period)
Ushpizin
Sleuth
Zorba the Greek
On the strictly fun side—
Pirates of the Caribbean
The Magnificent Seven
Moulin Rouge (musicals generally not my thing; didn’t think I’d like this one, was surprised)
