I feel like most talked-about shows and movies are American, what are some good European ones?

For Italy i'd say withoht a doubt Romanzo Criminale for the shows. (dk how it's called in english maybe Criminal Novel?). It's really something else how cool is that serie. For the movies i'd say the "dollar trilogy" from Sergio Leone is a must. "The great beauty" is absolutely stunning (won an oscar if i remeber correctly) I would add some classics like 'il medico della mutua" from Alberto Sordi and many others of his films are considered classics. Maybe not a common suggestion but i absolutely love the first "Vacanze di Natale" which created an entire series of sequels (vacanze di natale 2000, natale in india ecc) and a whole genre in Italy called Cinepanettoni, which are comedies (generally funny for a boomer-like sense of humor) coming out near christmas. I found the original much funnier than the others, even after all these years, and it's also a funny and quite spot on representations of the stereotypes of the italian man in the '80s. I might be biased cause i love that time period and since i didn't lived it i love to watch somethings that can "bring me back". Last i should mention Rose Island which is an amazing film for a cool real world story, link to the wikipedia article which i could say contains some spoilers haha. I'm sorry if i didn't provide all the english translations for the titles,and i'm also not sure all of these are dubbed in english or your native language. Hope you can enjoy some of these :)
