. Bagdad Cafe, The Girl in the Cafe, Cafe Cafe (kidding), The Black Book (Dutch film), Cannery Row.
My Favorite Year is a vastly underrated classic . . . has one of my favorite comedic quotes:
Stockbroker #1: [peering over the edge of the balcony] I think Alan Swann is beneath us!
Stockbroker #2: Of course he's beneath us. He's an actor!

Joel McCrea is also underrated. K. Hepburn was a big fan.Just for the hell of it.

A good one--though there was some question about the plausibility of it (a good Stasi man?). The lead actor claimed that some of the events were inspired by his own life.
The Year of Living Dangerously
House of Sand and Fog
Under Fire (Gene Hackman)
Meet Joe Black
Excalibur
Some of these, one might argue, are main stream (MJB, Excalibur) but they are old enough to have been missed by people under the age of 40.

Ha.... weird. I have been actively passing the time today looking at my investments accounts. Maybe it a was freudian slip.
"Payback" starring Mel Gibson is a pretty entertaining flick.

3 O'Clock High: it's a nerd vs high skool bully classic. Very '80's Breakfast Club-ish.
