Jodie Foster does the intro to La Haine on the Criterion Collection edition, and I think she sums it up nicely what it means in the larger context of film. Had this movie been made in America, I think, or even England, people wouldn't have shut up about it. I often feel that it hasn’t been properly regarded as a modern day classic.

I would have to add Goddard's Breathless to the list, having only just seen this wonderful film. La Haine had the same sort of effect with me as it came along when I was in my late teens, I often feel that it hasn't been properly regarded as a modern day classic.
