Yeah i started off with that, first film i have seen by him. But i have the following on my to watch list as well: - Vive L'Amour (Kanopy) - The Hole (Kanopy) - Goodbye Dragon Inn (Kanopy) - Stray Dogs (Kanopy/Mubi). - The Night (Mubi) (Short Film) Any other ones you recommend? I want to see The River but can't find it anywhere. Big fan of Tsai, such a singular director, with an amazing eye for composition. Rebels is great, but it's probably my least favorite of his features. They're all worth a look IMO This is a ranked list I made of his features after a recent rewatch of them They sort of fall into three loose categories also Reasonably conventional narratives, but still very much in the "slow cinema" realm Rebels of the Neon God - his most conventional/traditional film Vive L'Ámour The River What Time is it There I Don't Want to Sleep AloneBizarre/surreal "musicals" The Hole The Wayward Cloud - also contains a decent amount of softcore porn VisageUber minimalist almost plotless slow cinema pieces Goodbye Dragon Inn Stray Dogs DaysI've managed to get all of them on DVD, but they're not that easy to come by

About Dry Grasses (Dir. Nuri Bilge Ceylan ) via GoMovies - Starring Deniz Celiloglu, Merve Dizdar, 8.1
Ceylan’s film about a young Art teacher, whom is finishing his 4th year of compulsory service in Anatolia, and wishes to be transferred to Istanbul but then his character is called into question when acccusations of him getting to close to his students have emerged . The dinner table scene with the three men was an amazing dialogue and peak of the film to me. Although some may argue its Merve Dizdar’s long dialogue with the main character and her breakout scene which earned her the Best Actress at Cannes, overall these dialogues and several others throughout 2nd and 3rd act really make the film . - 9/10

Not sure what it is but Ceylan's films have never quite grabbed me as much as a lot of his "slow cinema" contemporaries. I'll probably still give this one a look if get a chance.

This was the first of his films I have seen, though the ones you mentioned are all on my list to see soon/eventually. Cheers. About Dry Grasses (Dir.

Been on my watchlist for the longest time. Really liked The Reckless Moment, La Ronde, and The Earrings of Madame deLola Montes was my second film by Max Ophuls. The first one, that I watched last week, was Le Plaisir. I'm desperately looking for The Earrings of Madame de.

Late Autumn (1960) If you have not seen it I highly recommend Late Spring (1949) also by Ozu.

Late Autumn (1960) My favorite director, master of subtlety and restraint. One of his many great works

If you have not seen it I highly recommend Late Spring (1949) also by Ozu. Great film, I agree. I watched it last year on occasion of the first tribute to Yasujiro Ozu by the local TV airing 10 of his films. Thanks for the recommendation, anyhow.
