Has no one mentioned Melancholia yet? I mean, I fucking hate that movie and don't suggest anyone watch it unless they want to experience depression and boredom in real time, but I'm surprised it hasn't been mentioned.

Melancholia is a beautiful and terrifying movie.
I didn't include it because the tone didn't seem right for exactly what he was looking for in the OP. But I highly recommend Melancholia. It's goddamn devastating.

Daniel, may I direct your attention to the last several pages of the Post Random Movie-Related Thoughts thread for some sad, dream-like internet literature

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that the last few pages of the Post Random Movie-Related Thoughts thread are the very pinnacle of the new board. It only took 2.5 years, but we did it!

Never Let Me Go pretty much epitomizes this.

Oh yeah, good call. I didn't like it as much as wanted to because I read the book and the book destroyed me. So, I didn't even think of it, but yeah. That's a GREAT call.

Oh and Russian Ark and Tarkovsky's The Mirror also would be good picks.
