Le Samouraï by Jean-Pierre Melville.

It's a fucking masterpiece of French cinema. Don't be put off by the fact that it's old and French, you will thoroughly enjoy it.

"Hitman Jef Costello is a perfectionist who always carefully plans his murders and who never gets caught. One night however, after killing a night-club owner, he's seen by witnesses. His efforts to provide himself with an alibi fail and more and more he gets driven into a corner."

ugh

think? so, philosophy? watch le regle du jeu, if you like social criticism. if not, let's see, how about theology? la voie lactee, ma nuit chez maud or la passion de jeanne d'arc. epistemology? 12 angry men or blade runner. ethics? the big combo. existentialism? detour, the postman always rings twice. politics? la chinoise, numero deux.

etc

'Carnage' by Polanski is funny and sophisticated,

Lars von Tier made some good movies to handle his depression (if this sounds interesting to you: watch the third no this list):
'Antichrist' (most disturbing/least thoughtfull)
'Dogville'
'Melancholia' (least disturbing/most thoughtfull)

but the most best movie ever (for now)
'Stalker' by Tarkowski
it is equal to ''2001: A Space Odyssee' by Kubrick but not that... fluffy

have fun

you're not going to get much out of antichrist if you're not familiar with the bible, really.

dogville has a sequel in a slave farm, but dogville is better. if you liked dogville, you should watch vanya on 42nd street.

that's one of my favourite films too. brofist

watch this OP, Jef is one cool motherfucker.
atmosphere is intense. You feel Jef's loneliness. elevated sound, film-noiresque character...
8/10 would watch again.

I understand too well what you mean by it being boring, on the other hand it could be said that Stalker tries too hard to do what Country Priest does naturally.

i think they were diddled when they were kids. and their parents died.

that odd sexual tension between fassbender and his character's sister was, weird, to say the least.

good movie.

Yes, definitely, something like that, the movie hints to other possibilities as well, that's what I love about it. Do you know of any other books/films dealing with that kind of character ambiguity? I'm deeply interested in this, this characterization through black space.

This is a film about another kind of shame that I recommend as well.
