Human Nature
Perceptive, humane films about flawed people and ongoing lives: intelligence, emotional ambiguity, expressive dialogue or visual poetry, and passions that matter to the characters. Inspired by Sideways and Nomadland. Stories may have arcs, but character insight must matter more than plot machinery. Mainly English-language, with selected international exceptions. Each film assessed individually. Independent curation informed by selected BFI and Criterion guides and programmes, with editorial additions. Not an official list from either publication.
