Tell me if I'm wrong but how has no one mentioned Oldeuboi(Old Boy/Oldboy) yet. Check out some stuff by Kim Ki-duk too.

Movies of Theodoros Angelopoulos such as:
Ulysses' Gaze and
The Suspended Step of the Stork
are so visually beautiful, in a dark-grey melancholic way, that every take could be a painting

What is more, movies of Kar Wai Wong are incredible beautiful in a more colourful way.
