@lminiero
you have detected my trap for the young!anything really, but let's just say nothing post 2000, let's go dogma 95 and earlier
-
@limebar Night Tide, because it's got a very young Dennis Hopper and a mysterious woman who may or may not be a mermaid, also it's free on YouTube.

@lydialurch thanks! looks interesting

@limebar House on Haunted Hill because it has Vincent Price in it.

@limebar Toys, 1992, directed by Barry Levinson, with Robin Williams & Joan Cusack.
American culture's distaste for earnestness and whimsy led to a deeply unfair response to this film. The level of surrealism was also probably turned up past most people's tolerance.

@limebar I was about to edit the above to indicate (as requested) *why* I recommend it, but I see that I already mentioned whimsy, surrealism, Williams, and Cusack, which feels like enough of a sales job.

in my head, slc punk and slacker are joined at the hip but it has been so long that may be a false connection -
@limebar Harold and Maude (1971). Everyone needs to think about the inevitability of death, and the inevitability of living.

https://video.pavel-english.ru/w/32afb0ba-6f74-4c75-81a3-c6d2867e6367@limebar I would suggest you find a copy with a decent resolution. The cinematography is quite exceptional for the time.

@limebar Eat the Rich: 1987 flawed political collision of sketch comedians, Motorhead and cannibalism starring Lanah Pelay (of Pistol in my Pocket). It's all nauseatingly relevant, and amazing.

@Lime Bar Tarkovsky's movie version oft Stanislav Lems book Solaris.
It's amazingly teaching for the way cameras were telling a story by image, instead oft actors telling you what to - or how you should understand what to - see.
For the necessity of enough time in scenes, so not needing sped up editing, which would only usually cover up a lack of content.
For a whole other planet diving into the human psyche, digging out the buried, wordless, haunting and fascinating at the same time.
Amazing movie - while Soderberghs later version of Solaris isn't bad, but operates just too quick and formatted for such mind blowing content.
