I will happily second "Mishima". I just got through watching Naqoyqatsi (third in the trilogy) today. While I was impressed with the artistic intent and logic of the film, it didn't grab me visually or musically as much as 1 or 2. If you've seen the first 2 though, you have to complete the trilogy.
