No subscription yet so I haven’t read the article. The dissolves were excellent in this film tho. But overall the slower pace and time with little moments is what made it so good for me - to stop and have time for a slow (but so so good) film like this is what was perfect.

Other intimate movies I can think of top of mind are: Lost in Translation, Past Lives, Columbus, Before Sunrise, Things to Come. I'll stop there since I'm making these recommendations blind not having yet seen The Holdovers. Actually, since the article opens with a Hal Ashby film (The Last Detail), I'll add another: Being There.

Good list. Off the top of my head I would add Kicking & Screaming. Maybe The Souvenir too?
Thanks for the link!
