Well, I do like that quite fetish porn-ish Japanese movie Tokyo Decadence, but that's mostly minus the violence part.
I'm really disappointed in both of the most internationally famous Danish directors, Von Trier and Winding Refn. |

Oh **** and Bronson too. It has a more coherent plot than the 3 films that you've watched and is his best film by far. One of the best films ever made actually.

I don't see many people mention Bronson. I keep forgetting it's even a Refn movie. The IMDB synopsis sounds trippy: "A young man who was sentenced to seven years in prison for robbing a post office ends up spending three decades in solitary confinement. During this time, his own personality is supplanted by his alter-ego, Charles Bronson." EDIT: Oh and I mean to watch this one some day. It's partially Trier, but I'm sure you at least know about it: "De Fem Benspænd". |

I believe that Refn is intentionally trying to go down as an auteur. Having a distinct style is a big part of that. I think von Trier is a case of trying to mature while also challenging himself.

The final 10 minutes are awesome in scope. Not very accurate scientifically, but still pretty mind-blowing.
