I have seen each film once.Both are allegories.
Both had iconoclastic directors whose bodies of work are considered important and are the object of scholarly study.
Both confront the viewer with some of the more unpleasant aspects of human behaviour. Neither is particularly optimistic.
Both are filmed with a high degree of technical proficiency.
Both continue to provoke strong reactions both pro and con.
Both are thought-provoking and ultimately memorable.
