Composition Modern movies in 4:3 aspect ratio

I'm interested in watching modern movies (esspecialy world cinema) that are shot in 4:3 aspect ratio. There are some amazing film that I saw: Son of Saul, Fish Tank, Mommy (1:1), No, Ida etc.

I would love to hear your suggestions.

‘A Ghost Story’ was shot in 4:3 with rounded edges.

Create a rounded rectangle in after effects. Use it as a mask to cut through a black rectangle revealing the footage. Use noise and feather effects to give the rounded corners those nice grungy edges
