Films like The Leisure Seeker.

The Leisure Seeker (2018) reads as Neutral, kinetic, gentle drama / romance, grounded in texture. Ambivalent, intimate, tender. 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.
