Lots of my favorites on this list. I really love a good slow moody movie. It's where the format really shines as far as I'm concerned. When you have 8 hours to advance a complex plot and introduce a bunch of characters now in a miniseries or season of shows, it's sort of hard to compete. So it makes sense to me when a filmmaker realizes they don't need to compete with that and just settles in to just complete a thought and tell a story well.
