L'atalante 
Jean Vigo 1934
Starts off slow but picks up considerably towards the middle. As is my opinion with almost every conventional fiction film, its strongest moments are when it delves into the surreal and subconcious, exemplified here when Vigo puts together a suprisingly risque sexual fantasy sequence near the end. The film is a poetic romance at heart, but the supporting character, Papa Jules, and his comedic demeanor really shine.
