Films like A Stone Cross.

A Stone Cross (1968) reads as Sombre, slow-burn, measured drama / folklore, inventive in texture. Nihilistic, mid-stakes, measured. Every film below is ranked by distance across the same twelve hand-scored axes — with what it keeps, and where it walks away. Not a genre dump.
