Great picks so far. Bitter Tears of Petra Van Kant is fantastic. Merchant of Four Seasons is good. Martha is highly underrated and VERY Douglas Sirk if you like that vibe. In a Year with 13 Moons is a deep cut that has aged really well.

Have you seen World on a Wire? It's an outlier in his filmography but it's an early adaptation of Simulacrum 3, which would inspire The Matrix and The 13th floor.
