It's not particularly Marcel's voice, although that plays a role. It's the whole feel of indie sad movies, where everything is oppressive and difficult, and suffused with people being ground down by life. I get the same feeling from Richard Linklater, and from Todd Solondz. Which isn't to say that they're bad movies - I just find them deeply uncomfortable, and spend quite a lot of time squirming internally.
