Films like Me and Orson Welles.

Me and Orson Welles (2008) reads as Warm, steady, measured drama / comedy, grounded in texture. Ambivalent, 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.
