#arthouse films

Are "slow cinema" and arthouse films just pretentious boredom?

Is supporting your local indie cinema a genuine act of resistance, or just a hipster badge of honor?

Does 'culturally important' cinema actually matter, or is it just an excuse for boring movies?

Do we enjoy independent cinema or just the bragging rights that come with it?

Should film festival juries stop rewarding "important" but unwatchably slow movies?
