The Woman in the Dunes (1964)
A brilliant, modernized re-telling of the tale of Sisyphus, with fantastic cinematography and acting. The close-ups of skin speckled by grains of sand mixed with sweat is enough to make me totally uncomfortable than a lot of what I see in horror films, that might sound silly, but being sweaty and dirty is the most annoying feeling in the world to me.
I recommend this movie to anyone interested in Japanese cinema.
