    Sometimes it seems like I've seen EVERYTHING! I look forward to watching some of these. My favorite that a lot of people haven't seen is "Into the Wild" with Emile Hirsch...GREAT movie (he should have won an Oscar)!

    Had to read this entire thread to see if any of my favorites were mentioned!

    Didn't see:

    Cry Baby or Swing Kids mentioned. :heart: both of these!

    I think one or two people mentioned Boondock saints. This AND the second. The second wasn't as good, but the cliff hanger at the end building up for a third movie made it worth it.
    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!

    I haven't seen this in a while, but I loved it!
    "Black Snake Moan"....it's a little dark, but a great story.

    Great movie! I never cared for Justin Timberlake, but this one really made me think twice about dismissing movies just because he was in them!


    Oh and Life is Beautiful with Roberto Benigni

    This movie makes me cry no matter how many times I see it. I'm just a big fat baby near the end! :sad:
    Tarantino's first, "True Romance"

    So many big names are in it, yet nobody has ever heard of it or seen it when I bring it up-
    Brad Pitt, James Gandolfini, Val Kilmer, Patricia Arquette, Christopher Walken, Christian Slater, Dennis Hopper, Gary Oldman.....all these greats in one fabulous movie....sigh :)

    This is on my list. I wish the director had kept the tarantino ending, but loved it just the same.

    Yeah, quite a few that in my circle of friends are not obscure at all. And also a number that are definitely mainstream.

    I agree, I loved 'A Love Song for Bobby Long' and have watched it many times. I thought it strange that people I know had never seen it! It also prompted me to read the book "The Heart is a Lonely Hunter" which I enjoyed just as much.

    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?!?!

    i loved return to paradise, but hated arlington road, lol

    Equilibrium with Christian Bale

    I LOVE this movie!




    True Heart with Kirsten Dunst
    I've yet to meet one person my age or younger who's heard of this movie. Maybe someone older has?
