Hi again
Been thinking and would also need to recommend these films on the themes of quiet personal and/or well photographed;
Carrington (VERY good film - superb soundtrack). Again about people & feelings)
A Room with a View
The Good Girl
The Piano (Great soundtrack)
On related themes I also like;
Family Man (One of my favourites - I must review it on IMDb)
Amelie
Chocolat
Groundhog Day (A bit more of a populist film)
American Beauty (a tremendous movie)
Fargo
Fried Green Tomatoes (Kathy Bates again)
PS - Your list is terrific - I have written IMDb reviews for Paris, Texas and Remains of the Day -

I'm surprised that no-one has mentioned The Age of Innocence, a similar movie involving suppressed love but set in NE USA society. Set a few decades earlier it is also a sign of times long gone.
Coincidentally both films were released within 6 months of each other and both had great actors filling the major roles. -

Wow!
Those are some impressive lists of films, some of which I had never heard of. All of you are obviously students of film. I added 19 of them to my list of films to see.
Thanks!

"Girl with a Pearl Earring" a quiet personal film that purports to be the backstory of the girl in Vermeer's masterpiece. The girl, a serving maid to Vermeer's family is drawn into a world of art complicated by the family dynamics of the household and her own need to secure her place in the world of her time and place in spite of her being drawn to the artist and his craft.
