Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

1. Check out online stores. You can go to Blockbuster online and also go to sites like filmmovement.com. They specialize in foreign and independent films.
2. Join a club, like Netflix or Blockbuster. These are mail order subscription sites that let you buy or rent films of every genre, including foreign films. Their libraries carry many foreign films, even the obscure titles.
3. Search on community boards such as craigslist.com, where you can search or advertise that you are looking for foreign films.
4. Swing by your local video store. Stay away from the chains, and stick the "mom and pop" shops in your area. They stay in business by carrying obscure titles for true film lovers.
5. Start or visit foreign film chat rooms. You can swap your views with people who are passionate about foreign films as well. It's a great place to buy, sell or trade.
