Films like Je t'aime, je t'aime.

Je t'aime, je t'aime (1968) reads as Sombre, measured, gentle sci-fi / drama, surreal in texture. Nihilistic, intimate, 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.
