Films like Right Now, Wrong Then.

Right Now, Wrong Then (2015) reads as Neutral, slow-burn, gentle drama / romance, inventive 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.
