Can we settle on a definition of bioenergetic when it comes to entertainment? I do love David Lynch, but his stuff is so vivid and disturbing that it hardly fits my bill. On the other hand, melancholy films such as Tarkovksy's have problems of their own.
Should a bioenergetic film mess up your sleep or cause you to have weird dreams? Should it drain you, make you feel gloomy or instigate feelings of helplessness? If not, what films can be rewarding (dopamine-ergic) or relaxing (GABA-ergic) without falling into the pit of sunday comedy/superficial feel-good flick?
For the sake of example: I love sci-fi, but this new version of Dune caused me such anxious feelings I hesitate if I'll watch the second part. Interception, while it also has a stress-inducing soundtrack by Hans Zimmer, somehow is less overpowering and managed to restore my mood in the end.

@Ivy Beatiful, calm, and stimulating should be the criteria for bioenergetic films. Terrence Malick is certainly on the mark. Parts of Lord of The Rings fits as well, although a closer interpratation of the books would be calmer than the action inspired version we got on the big screen.

@Ivy I think one important aspect is that it portrays something of moral value. It might be sad/gloomy/horrific, but if the struggle is towards something of greater moral value, it can still be a "uplifting" movie, even if it ends in catastrophe. The opposite is also true, a movie can be superficially "dopaminergic" or whatever but pushing moral degeneracy.
Most recent thing I watched was the first season of The Terror which was pretty good. Kind of slow in the beginning but good character development. Started watching season 2 (stand-alone) but was very disappointed.
