Pulp fiction is anti literature dreck written by a simple-minded fool who has never read a book in his life. I'll proceed with a starter list of worthwhile /lit/ approved cinema:
>Inherent Vice
>There will be blood
>No country for old men
>Blade runner
>Witness for the prosecution

Wtf are you talking about. Stalker isn’t visually interesting at all until the end. La Jetee is visually interesting; The Third Man is visually interesting; Paris, Texas is visually interesting. Hell, even (and especially) Hero is visually interesting.

Yeah, but it works. His first two films are deconstructions of genre films. However, he's been a complete failure ever since and as for your list
>>Inherent Vice
Typical PTA Pseudry
>>There will be blood
Better than Inherent Vice and one of his best films (Phantom Thread, TWBB, Boogie Nights, Master is my ratings for him) The Anti-Capitalism sentiment and the business/religion metaphors trifles the characters and makes the film reductive. A Moby Dick Ending would have been better.
>>No country for old men
Kino. One of my favorite films
>>Blade runner
Good, but there's better movies
>>Witness for the prosecution
An odd choice. Not even one of Wilder's better films. It feels like a shitty Alfred Hitchcock movie. Sunset Blvd or Double Indemnity would have been preferred.

I recommend Rossellini's WW2 trilogy, The Apu trilogy, Bresson's films A Man Escaped, Country Priest, Baltzahar, Largent, Pickpocket, Tarkovsky's entire works, Bergman's 5 kinos Seventh Seal, Persona, Fanny, Wild Strawberries, and Through a Glass Darkly, Ozu's Tokyo Story, Late Spring, and Early Summer trilogy, and An Autumn Afternoon, Welles' 3 best films Kane, Touch of Evil, and Chimes at Midnight, and classic noirs Maltese Falcon, Big Sleep, Big Heat, Third Man, Laura, Out of the Past, Night of the Hunter, Sweet Smell of Success, The Killing, In a Lonely Place, and Strangers on a Train

Criterion Collection has a lot of the best. Generally stick with older novel adaptations or directors who have some sort of vision. Be leery of recommendations on film sites because they're usually rating on metrics unrelated to how me rate books.

Getting into movies is such a chore. There's so much pseudo-intellectual stuff out there. People often associate "visually interesting" with "mentally stimulating." The best of cinema generally reaches about the middle level of literature. I still watch a lot of movies, because they're entertaining and my fiance really enjoys them, but I won't even pretend to claim the two mediums are even comparable.

Unrelated but I've recently been fantasizing about getting into screenwriting just to take advantage of art school pseuds.

I think this review nails it.

"Jonas Mekas’ films are particularly hard to rate and review because the parts which are interesting and beautiful (of which there are indeed several) seem to be so despite of him rather than because of him. He claims to want to celebrate life through the medium of cinema and does so to an extent, but one cannot help the feeling that he is celebrating his ego more than anything else. The voice-over in ‘Lost lost lost’ makes it quite clear that he is more occupied with conveying the image of himself as a sensitive artist than with singling out the beauties of ordinary reality. He is not so much infatuated with the world as he is infatuated with the idea of being infatuated by it; the trite narration of the ‘rabbit shit haiku’ sequence is especially demonstrative of his faux profound utterances and lack of vision. One could argue that Mekas’ personality is irrelevant to the quality of the film and one would be entirely right if his inflated sense of self-importance did not shine through to such a painful and awkward extent. Obviously, a director’s person is inextricably connected to the end result in diaristic cinema. Mekas’ supposed love of the exterior world is, I think, actually a masked love for the interior ego, which sadly contaminates those images and sequences that are genuinely admirable."

You can't. Literature transmits information directly into your consciousness. The words and their structure flow right into your mind as a flood of water rushes across a dry creek bed. (See? I just used words to make you feel an abstract concept.) But cinema provides imagery that your consciousness must ingest and distill. There's a mechanical buffer, the electronic screen, between the movie's message and your mind. So what I'm saying is it's functionally impossible for cinema to communicate as deeply as literature does. Hope that makes sense, as I really dislike arguing meta-level concepts like this and I don't think I'm good at it.

It could be argued that for these reasons cinema is superior at pure spectacle but I'm sure that's not a quality most of us are interested in.

Film can take advantage of music in a way literature cannot, and music has that same directness. Also film can make use of scripts, and if Shakespeare and Ibsen are considered literature then there's no reason, at least in theory, a screenplay couldn't be as well.

That's just being lazy and unimaginative. You're thinking in terms of physical appearences. What if the artist intended a metaphor or something abstract? Film can't do that because it's a medium of answers, and this is why many film suck, because art should be about questions.

Frost and Hemingway made interesting, meaningful works. Tarantino’s works always amount to an orgiastic celebration of consumer capitalism even when he’s trying to do the opposite.He equates occasional cleverness with real depth, and his screenplays are packed to the brim with lame quips and banal observations. He makes Uwe Boll look like Bergman.

I’m not saying I could do what he does. I’m merely saying what he does is bad.

The entire movie subverts expectations. From the ending to the setting, it's a bleak and deathly film with a menacing darkness to it. Bug-eyed, ever creepy Klaus Kinski is suitably perfect in the role of the antagonist, an utterly remorseless bounty hunter who kills without second thought.

The entire movie has a metaphorical quality (the icy, impartiality of death) that is very lit.

L'Atalante

Le Pont du Nord

IDK I really disliked the Master for some reason. I felt like he made it as this puzzle to figure out and once you do, like 10 minutes after the movie, it's the same pseudo-Camus bullshit about embracing the rides of life and not pursuing power than is implicit in all of his films. If it was more ambiguous like Lynch does in his films, then it'd probably be his best because the aesthetic was amazing and there were some unbelievable scenes especially with his young love interest towards the end. Philip Seymour Hoffman's character was good, but somewhat hindering in what the film could be.

I don't know what else you were expecting from this kind of thread on the literature board. What other kinds of movies do you think timid bookworms would enjoy? I suppose Ken Russell ought to be mentioned, as well as David Lean and David Cronenberg. I also like movies that don't fall in the "foreign films and arthouse directors" category like Zahler but it doesn't feel appropriate to recommend anything like that here.

>Hating on Kubrick is infantile

Agreed. This is the biggest psuedo tell there is. If you look at any of the top 10 greatest films of all time lists made by critics and filmmakers, you'll notice Kubrick always seems to make his way on there. There's a reason for that. But pseudos aren't knowledgeable enough to judge films based on merit, so they fall back on judging them based on irrelevant factors like obscurity. They notice that people who appreciate true kino often like obscure films they haven't heard of, so they conclude that obscure = good, popular = bad, without bothering to attempt to understand why these films are actually good, which has nothing to do with how obscure or popular they are.

Pretty much agree with your list, I'm glad you amended your "complete failure after his first two" comment to include Phantom Thread which was peak kino.
>>14048775
Off the top of my head, Naked Lunch (which is a fantastical Burroughsian deconstruction of the actual writing of the book; not an adaptation by any means but does include characters and allude to set-ups in the book), Last Exit To Brooklyn, the ABSOLUTE KINO which is Wise Blood, Under The Volcano, The Woman In The Dunes, Never Let Me Go, Under The Skin (even though the book isn't amazing) and fuck you /lit/ I'm gonna have these two because they're non-genre, "slice-of-life", "literary" art comics--Ghost World and American Splendor. The recent TV adaptation of catch-22 fucking killed it, too (even though I prefer God Knows and something Happened). Oh!--One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest, absolutely.
