Yahoo Movies has picked the Korean movie “Mother” as the best foreign film of the year so far:

This flick was South Korea’s official selection for the Oscars this year, so don’t expect it in your Oscar polls next March. But we don’t care. This Hitchcockian thriller is terrific and the more people should see it. Hye-ja Kim as the titular mom gives a flat out brilliant performance as worried parent turned Lady MacBeth. It comes out on DVD next week. “I Am Love” is really good too.  [Yahoo Movies]

I haven’t seen this movie yet, but I a definitely going to have to some time soon.
