The Wonderful Unloved

by oOgiandujaOo_and_Eddy_Merckx | created - 09 Mar 2015 | updated - 1 week ago | Public

Movies rated less than 6.0 on the IMDb which are wonderful. (<6.0 at the time of writing, lets move them up people!)

Wonder here I use both in the sense of bringing surprised joy (some of the films below are simply wonderful) and in the sense that James Ellroy defined it as term in his early novel "Clandestine", and which is found in profusion in his later novels, particularly the famous LA quartet. Wonder which is an ecstatic fascination with the extent of the depravity of others.

I list Cremaster 1 here separately from the other movies in the Cycle as it is the only one blow 6.0. In various other lists of mine the Cremaster Cycle is listed as a whole. La Peste is listed here, the last time I watched it was 25 or so years ago, and I would love to be able to see it again; due to time elapsed it does not figure in my main favourites list; please can we have a restoration!

Graduated above 5.9 since I started: Water Wrackets (1975 - Peter Greenaway)
