There are plenty of new exciting directors that are making excellent film without massive budgets particularly through NEON and A24. I personally love where the state of film is. |
I was going to say, Robert Eggers The Light House captures the imagination. It is one of the modern greats.
But in general I agree with Trad Ale. For whatever reasons I don't catch myself enjoying movies as much. Maybe its the social element like some were saying, maybe it is VFX and computer gen nonesense, but it is most likely that my own tastes have changed. I find it difficult to suspend belief, and really get into a movie. Even movies I really want to watch, I find it too easy to put them down.
