Films like The Snows of Kilimanjaro.

The Snows of Kilimanjaro (2011) reads as Neutral, measured, gentle drama, grounded in texture. Redemptive, intimate, tender. 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.
