Fantastic Planet 1973
Very refreshing to see true surreal alien concepts being described in this film. The Draags and Oms are perfectly portrayed not as good or evil but as an indifference due to the laws of physics on their planet. There’s a subtle theme of lovecraftien cosmic horror that feels almost uncanny because of that 70s art style and animation style. Everything from start to finish is bizarre, weird, unorthodox, strange, and fantastic.

Love in the Afternoon 1972
First new french wave film and Rohmer’s signature style of the art of conversation captures beautifully the psychology of obsessive infatuation of committing an extramarital affair. The couple behave like drug addicts that can't resist to be together.
