Do gangs like this actually exist in real life?

Got to watch Moonlight last night at the local theater. Boy, that was pretty much perfection.

>the top tier acting
>the stunning cinematography
>the music
>the colours
>the dialogue
>tfw "you're the only one who's ever touched me"
>dat Mahershala Ali character

This movie was comfy, exciting, romantic, unnerving, heartbreaking, relateable even if you're not a gaysexual black guy. Mahershala Ali HAS to get that best supporting actor Oscar.

Looking for recs on French movies. Recently started learning the language and figured watching some movies oughta help.

I've looked for lists on the net but it feels kind of hit and miss, since a lot of the listed movies seem to fall into the shittiest strata of vanguardist behaviour.
So far I've seen:

>Pierrot le fou
A good movie, but at times taking too far the po-mo shtick. Most of the references feel shoehorned as an attempt to gain street-cred with the cool kids. Interesting nonetheless, and very pleasing to the eye.

>Lola Montés
Got me bored a third through. Nothing of interest was happening, and the photography in itself wasn't good enough to keep me enthralled.

>La passion de Jeanne d'Arc
Amazing in every possible way; definitely got ahold a place as one of my favourite pics ever... but unfortunately silent, so not of much help with the language.

>Les quatre cents coups
Rich storyline, good dialogue, and pacing. A great movie.

For whatever it's worth, these are some of favourite movies:
>2001, Andrei Rublev, Midnight Cowboy, Barry Lyndon, Aguirre der Zorn Gottes, Apocalypse now, Lawrence of Arabia, Dersu Uzala, and The Human Condition.

Nothing too fancy certainly, but perhaps it can serve as a lead to get a rec for something in French.
Thanks in advance.

The Master is one of the most honest, melancholic movies ever made. I think there's often a lot of confusion about what the point of the movie was or what it was trying to convey, but I think most people are just looking too deep into it.

For me, the basic subjects were about being lost, being without love and yearning for some meaning. You can see this most plainly in the processing scene and in the ending scene between Dodd and Freddie. Freddie tells him about his loss in Doris, how it didn't work for whatever reasons, due to his own misguided or misunderstanding of life and who he was. He is otherwise wandering in life, but this was the one thing he could recall to when he just closed his eyes for a moment to think. As the movie goes on, his relationship of sorts with Dodd grows but Freddie leaves again. He goes to see Doris only to learn she has been long gone. It's difficult to say if that would have anchored him down again anyway, but he comes to terms with it and finds himself back at Dodd again. Dodd tells him he can go on and be free, truly free the way Dodd always envied him for, or that he could stay. Freddie replies to him, "Maybe in the next life," before cracking a faint and sad smile. Dodd is seen as a masterful manipulator throughout the movie through the Cause, and while some say he was simply manipulating Freddie with ill intent when he replied back to him that they will be sworn enemies in the next life, I truly do think that PTA wrote that the way he envisioned a lot of people in actual relationships behaving. They want them to stay. They do something that is ultimately seen as poor behavior, but they're not manipulating to hurt them intentionally. They're telling them don't go. But Freddie is a sailor of the seas, and just like how he went off to Shanghai when he couldn't stay with Doris, Dodd sings him off and wishes him a slow boat to China. It's a movie about being that feeling of being lost in this world and isolation of it.
