Loneliness and great cinema have always understood each other, these films make you feel less alone in different ways. Drama at its most powerful, character-driven, honest, and impossible to look away from. Specifically from the golden era of the 80s and 90s, a period that defined modern cinema in ways still felt today. Criminally underseen films that deserved a much bigger audience, now they have one.
