M: I came here for a good argument.
A: No you didn't; no, you came here for an argument.
M: An argument isn't just contradiction.
A: It can be.
M: No it can't. An argument is a connected series of statements intended to establish a proposition.
A: No it isn't.
M: Yes it is! It's not just contradiction.
A: Look, if I argue with you, I must take up a contrary position.
M: Yes, but that's not just saying 'No it isn't.'
A: Yes it is!
M: No it isn't!

CROUCHING TIGER, HIDDEN DRAGON (!!!)
one of only two or three films I have ever been to see in the cinema more than once
Re: Favorite non-english-language movie?
I haven't watched any of his movies lately, but I remember very much enjoying several by Ingmar Bergman. Seventh Seal and The Magician come to mind. And of course there's Kurasowa's Rashomon, and perhaps my all-time non-English favorite, Gojira:
