J3FF3R00 Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 Definitely Herzog's docs. (WATMM's quote function on mobile is all fucked up lately!) Also, Lawrence of Arabia. Zidane 2001 / Barry Lyndon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

triachus Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 Mother & Son by Sokurov http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0119711/ As far as I can remember, not much happens in the film. You just see two people. And it has beautiful shots. https://www.google.be/search?um=1&hl=en&safe=off&tbo=d&biw=1280&bih=890&tbm=isch&sa=1&q=%22Mat+i+syn%22&oq=%22Mat+i+syn%22&gs_l=img.3..0i24.238530.239753.0.239906.2.2.0.0.0.0.135.230.1j1.2.0...0.0...1c.1.egD02v-NMFA lush Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eh Speedy Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 I'd imagine Kitten Party would be pretty ambient. http://www.amazon.com/Kitten-Party-Kittens/dp/B0036EH3WA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest pixelives Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 Zidane is great. There's a lot of films like this in the contemporary art world. A lot are crap but there are some gems, as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest A/D Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 A guy I know interviewed Chuck Norris for a movie preview. This really happened. Guy: Chuck, what's it like to know that you can kick the ass of anyone you meet? Chuck: (Pause) You know, it's comforting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Npoess Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 Stalker (probably the definition of a 'ambient film') Blade Runner Waltz With Bashir There Will Be Blood Apocalypse Now (towards the ending) Pans Labyrint Not sure will qualify all these as ambient films (except Stalker). But they all have quieter/slower atmosphere building scenes. As far as I remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hello spiral Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 Five Dedicated to Ozu by Abbas Kiarostami. Picked this up on DVD recently but haven't watched it yet. Pretty much seems to be Kitten Party for the highbrow arty type: Five sequences : 1) A piece of driftwood on the seashore, carried about by the waves 2) People walking on the seashore. The oldest ones stop by, look at the sea, then go away 3) Blurry shapes on a winter beach. A herd of dogs. A love story 4) A group of loud ducks cross the image, in one direction then the other 5) A pond, at night. Frogs improvising a concert. A storm, then the sunrise. http://uk.imdb.com/title/tt0409965/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnwarAutokino Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 If you want to go more mainstream, Unbreakable by M. Night Shyamalan is pretty ambient, very slow pacing etc. Apart from that: Kubricks 2001 and all films by Terrence Malick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
