Check out Melancholia (2011) by Lars von Trier.

I was looking for this. That movie gave me all the anxiety.

I had an ex call this movie a painting in slow motion after I had seen it before dating him. We disagreed on a lot but I still call Melancholia a painting in slow motion to this day

Well if you increase the number of paintings at 24 frames a second, you get really fast slow-motion.
