The “romance” and “drama” genres are both particularly broad ones when it comes to movies, and that makes it hard to pin down a certain era when such movies were particularly popular or unpopular. It’s possible to point to the 1940s and 1950s as one when the film noir genre was all the rage, or the 1980s as a particularly good time for say slasher movies. But romantic dramas? They always have been – and always will be – hot property.
I Am Love centers on an unfulfilled mother of three who strikes up a potential romance with a much younger man, inevitably having to choose between having an affair or staying in the lane she’s always been in. That description might make I Am Love sound generic, but it’s a good deal artsier and nuanced than the premise might make it sound, and it’s an overall strong and effectively moving romance film.
7 'Syndromes and a Century' Director: Apichatpong Weerasethakul Close Apichatpong Weerasethakul is a filmmaker who specializes in making some very distinctive arthouse films, with Syndromes and a Century perhaps being his most digestible to date. It’s still quite obscure for large chunks of its runtime, but it doesn’t take as many perplexing tangents as some of his other films, and mostly centers on two doctors who are loosely based on Weerasethakul’s own parents.
It's a movie that feels like it’s about nostalgia, loneliness, and belonging, but it’s also impressionistic enough that different viewers are bound to come away thinking about – and feeling – any number of things. Millennium Mambo is the sort of film to watch and let it wash over you; it’s easy to sink into, and it undoubtedly looks and sounds stunning, from front to back, too.
