There have been plenty of great, original movies post-2010 that push filmmaking in some way, they’re just overshadowed by the marvels of the world. Some of my recent favorites:

Tar

Sorry to Bother You

Uncut Gems

Get Out

Tangerine/The Florida Project

Dogtooth

Mad God

How do you find them?

I used to read the AV Club’s reviews, but honestly the quality has gone way downhill there recently. Now I follow A.A. Dowd (one of the AV club’s former reviewers) plus a bunch of other people on Letterboxd, which is pretty much a social network for movies.

Easier said than done, but you just have to find some person or blog that has similar taste in movies to you, and listen to them.

Since the BBC axed The Film Programme, you can try following Eileen Jones at Jacobin.
