Thank you for the list. Poetic cinema is what elevates film to the level of art. I've seen Deren, Marker, Tarkovsky, Anger, and, of course, the greatest of them all--Brakhage's Dog Star Man, yet there were many hidden gems on here I've never discovered.

Having only seen a few, the experience of watching visually poetic films is always amazing
