Film Series
Dekalog
I made a list about Krzysztof Kieslowski's Dekalog. All the characters live in the same apartment complex, and sometimes appear briefly as minor characters in the other films.
The Tramp
The greatest films featuring Charlie Chaplin's character the Tramp.
The Great Dictator isn't included because Chaplin said he wouldn't play the Tramp in a sound film, and considers the Tramp and the Jewish barber separate characters. The GodfatherFor me one of the reasons why I'm so angry at Coppola is because soon as I think about the 5 best American movies, he's got two of them [Pt. I and II]... They are as close to perfect movies as I think exist. - Sidney Lumet (Source) The third film is a pretty good film, but it pales in comparison to the first and second films. If you're somebody who wants closure and is okay with a good, yet disappointing film, the third film is worth watching. Fellini's 'Trilogy of Loneliness'
A thematic trilogy by Federico Fellini
Noriko Trilogy
A thematic trilogy by Yasujiro Ozu. Each main character is called Noriko and played by the same actress.
Antoine Doinel films
François Truffaut made film sequels to his semi-autobiographical masterpiece The 400 Blows.
Man With No Name Trilogy
I don't know if Sergio Leone intended for Clint Eastwood's characters to be one character.
A Fistful of Dollars is based on Yojimbo. Terence Davies' 2nd Semi-autobiographical Trilogy
Directed by Terence Davies. Distant Voices, Distant Lives are two films combined.
I began making films [out of] a deep need . . . to come to terms with my family’s history and suffering, to make sense of the past and to explore my own personal terrors, both mental and spiritual, and to examine the destructive nature of Catholicism. Film as an expression of guilt, film as confession (psychotherapy would be much cheaper but a lot less fun). — Terence Davies Yojimbo & Sanjuro
Directed by Akira Kurosawa.
Star WarsThe Human Condition![]() Masaki Kobayashi ... made the nine-hour epic "The Human Condition" which was critical of the way the Bushido Code permeated Japanese life and helped create the state of mind which led to World War II. - Roger Ebert Apu TrilogyTo have not seen the films of Ray is to have lived in the world without ever having seen the moon and the sun. - Akira Kurosawa The Silence Trilogy
A thematic trilogy by Ingmar Bergman.
These three films deal with reduction. Through a Glass Darkly – conquered certainty. Winter Light – penetrated certainty. The Silence – God's silence – the negative imprint. Therefore, they constitute a trilogy. - Ingmar Bergman (Wikipedia) Don Hertzfeldt's 'It's Such a Beautiful Day' TriloThe trilogy has a persistently cosmic existentialist slant. It's like you're making peace with chaos by finding beauty in the details. Bill is very confused but still reaches this euphoric awareness of life. The trilogy doesn't have a name, but the films share existential themes. Three Colors Trilogy
Like in The Decalogue, Krzysztof Kieslowski created three films where the characters make short appearances in the other films.
The films are based on the three colors of the French Flag, representing liberty, equality, and eternity. Roger Ebert said In the trilogy, "Blue" is the anti-tragedy, "White" is the anti-comedy, and "Red" is the anti-romance. Herzog's 'megalomania' Trilogy
A thematic trilogy by Werner Herzog
A.O. Scott said Along with “Aguirre” and “Fitzcarraldo,” “Cobra Verde” completes a trilogy of mayhem and megalomania in hot climates. The films are about different imperialists played by Klaus Kinski. Toy Story Trilogy |

Have you considered Park Chan-Wook's Vengeance trilogy?
Gus Van Sant's "Elephant", "Gerry" and "The Last Days" are also a to be considered as a trilogy, they're not all equally good and they are only linked by the way they treat the relation between filmic and real time, but it's quite interesting.
