Films like Out Stealing Horses.

Out Stealing Horses (2019) reads as Sombre, measured, measured drama / memory, 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.
