“Whatever you do, don't fall asleep.”
Provisional dossier. Metrics derived from the systematic pipeline (method v1.1-metric-fix); curatorial reading pending. The shape below is what the open record has produced so far — read it as a draft, not a verdict.
Resolved — wide, durable agreement across critic and audience record.
Quiet — the interpretive gap has closed or never opened.
Consumed — being lived with over time, not filed away.
Installed — the work recurs without invitation; it has moved in.
Layered — sustained interpretive activity; the film is being decoded.
Entrenched — deep devotion, often shaped by initial rejection and reclamation.
Risky — sustained formal experimentation that tests viewer tolerance.
Extreme — the work moves bodies; crying, panic, awe, nausea in the record.
Universal — no glossary required; the work provides its own entry.
Saturated — a shared reference in the general cultural vocabulary.
Acknowledged — named as an influence by a handful of subsequent filmmakers.
Overturned — the work's cultural position is substantially different from its initial reception.
Uncomfortable — touches sensitive territory but does not breach social limits.
Pressure signal too sparse to cluster.
No durable interpretive faction has formed.
