If you loved The Best Offer, try A Pure Formality
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. A Pure Formality has roughly 7.9× fewer votes than The Best Offer — it's a deeper cut, not a mainstream recommendation. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Giuseppe Tornatore, and they sit in Crime / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Best Offer, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What A Pure Formality is
Night. Rain slicking the cobblestones. A scream. Famous novelist Onoff, fugitive from fame, brought in for questioning. An isolated police station, somewhere out of time. A long night of interrogation, a dead body, and a truth stranger than fiction. Tornatore's Euro-thriller anticipates the puzzle-box era.
