"Belly" is probably the most conventional of what I've seen to far, but still not conventional... (-:
When I see his film, I too feel like I must be missing a lot of what he is saying. Have you seen "A Zed and two Noughts"? It's jam packed with cryptic stuff!
I've seen it at least three times and don't get it. After "Drowning By Numbers" I started being more hesitant in seeing his latest films. I liked "Drowning" with the three Sissy's because it had the feel of his "early" work as compared to "Pillow Book" and "8 1/2 Women".

oddly compelling...

They both share a love for a non-narrative, inner consciousnes, subjective kind of filmmaking.
Greenaway is famously uninterested in other directors...especially of the commercial stripe...but he acknowledged an appreciation for Lynch's Blue Velvet.
He said it was so good he wished he had made it.
