Pynchon-esque films

[John Bailey]

The Night Porter is *very* Pynchonesque. Great film.

Also Possession (1981) by Andrzej Zulawski

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0082933/

Arthouse horror/sci fi/relationship drama with strong subtexts
regarding European post-war politics. Like Polanski directing a Clive
Barker novel.

Actually Polanski's Cul de Sac (1966) is quite Pynchonian in its
playing out of perverse relationships as power struggles. Very funny
flick too.
