The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat (1987)
Confusing, but thought provoking indeed!
I've watched this film over and over again, and I'm still finding new things that I didn't notice before. I have to admit, the first time I watched this film, I thought it was awful. It appeared to have little plot, bad acting, and only the superb performance of Lorraine Mills convinced me to watch it again. On watching it a second time, the message of the film suddenly hit me, and at that moment made a lot more sense. I noticed subtle hints towards upcoming events comparable to Shakespeare (esp. Macbeth), and twists in the main character's mental well being created an interesting insight in to the things that can cause a woman to go insane. I'd go in to more detail, but I'll spoil the brilliant (if confusing) plot, although the film really has to be seen to be understood. See it, but remember it is VERY hard to understand fist time round.
Zeruda no densetsu: Toki no okarina (1998)
The best adventure game, ever!
The game has such incredible depth, but with an incredibly smooth learning curve, and enough variety in its puzzles and domains to keep you playing for a long, long time. The controls are smooth and well thought out, making it incredibly playable. The bosses are superb, and just the right difficulty. It requires skill, of course, but also a lot of lateral thinking and clue spotting. Anyone, whether in to adventure games, or action games or not, will be impressed by the sheer size and playability of the Ocarina of Time.
