As for a non english movie I suggest Intouchables. It's in french and there are english subs for it, it's based on a true event and is very touching. For me I usually don't care whether it's based on true events or not as long as it's good, but that movie had something special with it. A few other good ones are The Silence of the Lambs (if you're looking for horror), Inglourious Basterds and Snatch.
