Oh yeah, I forgot one film. Fuck, totally forgot about it arghhhhhhhhhhhh. Gonna edit it back into my post.
Incendies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If you haven't heard of it, go watch it now.
I still like Ashes of Time better than any of those but I'm odd that way...I can't decide if this one is more of a gut punch or if Days of Being Wild is. Fallen Angels does have the masturbation scene though so that's an edge.

Elite Squad and its sequel are masterpieces.
One of the greats.Condemned to six years in prison, Malik El Djebena, part Arab, part Corsican, cannot read or write. Arriving at the jail entirely alone, he appears younger and more fragile than the other convicts. He is 19 years old. Cornered by the leader of the Corsican gang currently ruling the prison, he is given a number of "missions" to carry out, toughening him up and gaining the gang leader's confidence in the process. Malik is a fast learner and rises up the prison ranks, all the while secretly devising his own plans.
Shin Godzilla

Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon
