If you were lucky, there was an art-house cinema in your town, and you kept a list of everything nominated for a Best Foreign Film Oscar.

With the advent of streaming services that have made international film and TV readily available, and the realization that, yes, we are perfectly capable of enjoying media with subtitles (hello, Parasite, Money Heist, Squid Game, etc....
