Movies that you love, but that no one else seems to be aware

Just curious if anyone runs into this: You've seen a movie and you really like it and then you ask people (usually several people) if they've seen it and they've never heard of it.

For example: Arlington Road with Tim Robbins and Jeff Bridges. I love this movie, but no one I work with has ever seen it or heard of it...REALLY?? Another one is Return to Paradise with Joaquin Phoenix and Vince Vaughn...such a good movie, but NO ONE I know has seen it or heard of it.

So anyone else have a enjoyable movie that no one else seems to know about?!?!

    Lone Star State of Mind. Cheesy, campy, but absolutely hilarious.

    I have seen this one! Didn't like it though, lol...it was one of those movies where all the good parts were in the previews (IMHO)

    Lucky Number Sleven - one of the BEST movies EVER but no one ever knows about it, which is weird b/c it has Bruce Willis and Morgan Freeman in it. It's a total mind job movie like Fight Club. Love it!
  • Same Time Next year. Dont know why but I love this movie and it always makes me cry....:sad:

    I liked Arlington Road, too...funny that you can't find anyone who's heard of it. Three of my all-time favorites are Gattica, The Story of Us, and Wuthering Heights (classic & re-make). I never hear anyone talk about these, but I love 'em anyway!
