Watched Past Lives. It was like a modern update of Wong Kar Wai, dripping with tension and beauty and a throughly atmospheric soundtrack unsurprisingly scored by two members of Grizzly Bear. I dunno whether I'd recommend it to others. I think they need to have lived through at least a bit of the contemporary immigrant experience for the film to hit its most powerful notes.
