Films like The Last Inspector.

The Last Inspector (1985) reads as Sombre, steady, measured drama / latvian, grounded in texture. Ambivalent, mid-stakes, measured. Every film below is ranked by distance across the same twelve hand-scored axes — with what it keeps, and where it walks away. Not a genre dump.
