Perfect film.
Bagdad Cafe
Jack Palence regarded this film as both his best performance and the best film he was ever in,he was right on both counts.

The sick flucks in Hollywood are producing a new Three STooges movie which is likely to suck just like 99% of their trash nowadays! HERE IS THE REAL DEAL!!!
What about idiocracy?

Office Space is very insightful on modern corporate life, and Idiocracy seems very prophetic politically!

Extract was very good.
I enjoyed Adam
The Canadian film, Cafe de Flore was excellent
Moon could easily have been one of the worst movies made, with just Sam Rockwell and a robot voiced by kevin spacey as characther but it woreked out superbly
the French film Mesrine was superb
and lets not forget the great Atomised
e. e. cummings is my hero.
I was going to link Adam, but IFF beat me to it.

Internal Affairs
Richard Gere plays a ultra-corrupt cop who believes in conservative tradition and traditional family values(even though he doesn't live up to either in his personal life) who is harassing both an interal affairs cop with a non-comformist life style(Andy Garica) who also happens to be investigating him, and the non-conformist cop's feminist wife(Nancy Travis).
Gere has one of the greatest lines in all of flim history with "YOU SELFISH YUPPIE!".

The Swimmer with Burt Lancaster, based on the John Cheever short story, was a devastating indictment of the suburban middle-class that really deserved a lot more acclaim that it got. It also packed one hell of a twist ending.

^The Swimmer was one of the most retarded movies ever made! The legendary Bob Grant used to refer to Ted "The Swimmer" Kennedy because of that odd ball shit combined with the fact that Ted swam to safety after he killed they young girl.
John And Mary
In ths excellent 1969 film ,Dustin Hoffman and Mia Farrow play John and Mary ,two people (who had just lost their long-term significant others)meet by acident at a bar ,go back to his place and spend the night together (as The Rolling Stones would put it).
They spend the rest of the next day figuring out if they should stay together or break up right away.
This was Hoffman's first film after the one-two punch of The Graduate and Midnight Cowboy,and Farrow's first flim after Rosemary's Baby,and in this film they play two fairly normal people every bit as well as they played abnormal peple in The Graduate,Midngiht Cowboy and Rosemary's Baby.

A.I with Haley (whatever) Joel Osment and Jude Law.
I like that film,but I wouldn't call it underrated.
It got good box office,good reviews,it's still fairly big on DVD.

Five Corners
Directed by Tony Bill ,produced by George Harrison(yes,that George Harrison).
IMO Jodie Foster and John Turturro give their best performances to date in this film,and Tim Robbins gave his best performance before Mystic River in this film.

The Intruder
Early 60's film directed by Roger Corman,starring a (then) unkown William Shatner.
Shatner plays a Northern racist who comes to a Southern town (forced to intergate it's schools) to try and stir up trouble,and finds he did his "job" too well.

It's available on DVD.
It was a bit too ahead of its time. That style of storytelling - ie, unreliable narrator - went over the heads of the Sixties cinema audience.
