Ah thanks I was waiting for someone to put ‘le fabuleux destin d’Amélie Poulain’.
Last time a similar question was asked, I responded with Perfect Blue, The End of Evangelion, and Love & Pop.
So this time, I'm going to suggest Sans Soleil.
Flight of the Phoenix, the original B&W one from the 50s
Fantastically atmospheric, you can feel the tension all the way through the film
Oh one more. Contagion. Made years and years before covid - pretty spot on tho.
Once were warriors
American History X
I find it inconceivable that no one has mentioned 'The Princess Bride' yet.
That word... I think it means exactly what you think it means.

Requiem for a Dream. But probably only watch it once.
Simultaneously made me want to try, and to never ever try, drugs
Pincess Mononoke and/or Metropolis 2001
Threads. Especially should be mandatory for politicians. To date one of the most accurate portrayals of nuclear war. It is not an uplifting movie.
The Pianist
To Kill A Mockingbird
And read the book.
Pitch Perfect Production of a 1970’s story that’s just shockingly good. Go in blind like I did, you won’t be disappointed.
Synopsis:
Tap for spoiler
In 1970s Los Angeles, a mismatched pair of private eyes investigate a missing girl and the mysterious death of a porn star.
Rubber. The movie about the tire who woke up and chose violence.
That movie is really terrible.

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.
This movie is the epitome of #mood for me. I love almost every scene as a standalone artwork. Must've watched it 20 times.
Did you like science of sleep? Similar vibes. Eternal sunshine is my favorite though.
I did a uni paper on it! I don't like it as much, it's a little too whimsical in comparison, but Gondry has a style that just settles my bones.
I loved this movie and if I was to read a summary I would think it's boring as hell. But it's not. It's on my Made Me Cry list, has an amazing female main character and a solid romance that is not cliche, and I typically cringe at movies with too much romance. This one is good. I +1 your recommendation.
