Der Riese (1984)
Fascinating
I've seen this movie at a friend's party and was stunned. In showing only security footage, it's a very different look on human behavior than any I've seen before. It feels as if someone was watching human beings like in a zoo (and from a higher viewpoint, hence "The Giant"). It's not a movie you would see for entertainment, but when you look for some kind of meditative waste of time, this is it.
Une liaison pornographique (1999)
Realistic French Romance
The growing relationship between a man and a woman who met because of an advertisement (she searched for a man for sex only) is photographed in an easy, slow style which gives the actors much room for their brilliant acting. You could really imagine to meet these characters on street. A good contrast to the big romantic movies like "City Of Angels"; it reminds me more of "Bridges Of Madison County"- no fancy stuff, but realistic emotions and characters.
