🎞️ 8 Quietly Brilliant Films You’ve (Probably) Never Seen

Here’s my comfort list. Kinda weird, kinda sad, very pretty. ⸻ 1. Red Desert (1964, Antonioni) Everything feels broken. The colors are too beautiful for this empty world. Monica Vitti looks like a dream. 2. Lover for a Day (2017, Philippe Garrel) Love wants to hold tight, then wants to run away. No one in this film knows what they’re doing—and that’s why it hurts. 3. A Married Woman (1964, Godard) Black and white. Her skin. Her words. Her silence. The film doesn’t talk much, but it says everything. 4. Paterson (2016, Jarmusch) A bus driver writes poems. Nothing really happens. It still feels like everything. 5. Beyond the Clouds (1995, Antonioni & Wenders) People meet, then part. It’s slow, dreamy, and sad in a way that sneaks up on you. 6. Hélas pour moi (1993, Godard) Godard watches himself die in a screen. Everyone’s grieving. Even God. 7. Bagdad Café (1987, Percy Adlon) A German lady shows up in a desert motel and makes everything weirdly magical. Coffee, makeup, music. I loved her. 8. My Afternoons with Margueritte (2010, Jean Becker) An old man and an old woman talk about books in the park. Nothing flashy, but my heart felt full. #entertainment #movie #softcinema
