'Archangel'

Guy Maddin is a super weird Canadian. His influences are most notably the early German silent filmmakers and the Soviet propaganda makers of the 1920s and 1930s.

And it shows. His distinctive black and white style create a certain influence and style that a billion different artists would kill for.

It took me forever to watch this film and when I finally watched it I thought it was incredibly boring. You can't win them all.
