    Default aura of art-house taste - meaning?

    How could I paraphrase the expression in bold. Please help.

    Once you watch a few of these films, the attraction becomes clear: unlike Bergman's often arty, ponderous parables, modern Scandinavian movies are brilliant at telling universally recognizable stories without sacrificing an aura of art-house good taste.

    My nonprofessional sentiments:
    while retaining the charm of foreign art films.
