xeQYcJWNBz Posted December 21, 2012 Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 (edited) 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.

Guest pixelives Posted December 21, 2012 Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 Zidane is great. There's a lot of films like this in the contemporary art world.

Npoess Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 (edited) 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.

hello spiral Posted December 22, 2012 Report 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/ Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Hide hello spiral's signature Hide all signatures https://salaamhelicoid.bandcamp.com/ Reveal hidden contents Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/76939-ambient-films/page/3/#findComment-1921856 Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnwarAutokino Posted December 22, 2012 Report 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.
