Movies that feel likeBiutiful (2010)
If you loved Biutiful, the closest films we have are Leave No Trace (2018), The Straight Story (1999) and How to Make Millions Before Grandma Dies (2024). All three share Biutiful's contemplative and wistful feel, which is what we rank on before quality.
Seen the big three already? The under-the-radar pick below is House of Hummingbird (2019).

If Biutiful hit the spot, these will too

Contemplative where it counts, wistful underneath
The difference: Reviewed even better


Both lean on stillness more than on drama

Drama built on wistfulness, twice over


Both sit in the same wistful register

Drama in the same key
The difference: Made in the 1950s, in a different era of the craft



Both are built on the same subject: nostalgic


In the mood for more contemplative?
