30 Great Films That Defy Genre According to Other People's Movies

"The movies that don't subscribe to one particular genre have the potential to be the fullest cinematic experiences that most closely resemble real life. Films that don't cater to a single dominant genre can easily come across as inept, especially when they are created without purpose, intent, or awareness. When a filmmaker knows what they are trying to accomplish–and when it doesn't fit neatly into any one box–is when truly exciting, surprising, and effective results can occur. Getting an audience to laugh one minute, cry the next, and experience many other unpredictable emotions is a challenging feat. The titles that comprise this list are exciting, unpredictable, and daring films that refuse to be labeled as any one thing. The following movies are for people who want it all in the movies they watch, and who aren't afraid of being exposed to something bold, new, and unknown." - otherpeoplesmovies.com
