I don't really think it's accurate. I love when the main plot is deeper than just what you can see. I just watched The Green Knight and I was constantly trying to find the deeper meaning to whatever was happening and how it related to the overall plot in a more symbolic way.

My favorite movies are Pulp Fiction and The Fifth Element which both have multiple storylines. Although for The Fifth Element, the overall plot is straightforward.

I just didn't find this movie interesting and the "intense" scenes didn't really land for me.

I understand. What would you say is the most intense scene in a film?

It's probably been 17 years since I saw it, and I didn't love it. So my memory on it isn't the best. So I'm going to give the obvious example of the coin scene. Which from what I remember commanded some gravitas.

Ah, my mistake. I meant to ask what is your favorite scene from ANY film. The coin flip scene is lit tho.

First intense scene like that comes to mind is the opening to Inglourious Basterds. I'll let you know if I think of one I like more than that. But that's probably it.

Coin scene is boring, car scene from Nocturnal Animals.
