I'd agree with the Melancholia pick, one of the best movies I've ever seen, I always feel a deep connection to Kirstin Dunst when she lays on the side of the river under the light of the moon, there is a deep surrender and peace to that idea, letting go of the problems of your past, giving up control over the world, and things you can't control. The house that Jack built might be the complete opposite of that, inherently nihilistic, shining a light on the absurdity of evil in our world, the complete lack of meaning of some of the awful things that can happen. I don't think I'd want to see that in a theater, or more than once, but there is some appeal to it because of it's underlying theme of complete absurdity. But you're right, it's not the type of movie that would lift me up.
