Any independent movies that deserve more recognition?

[dame]

Are there any movies that you feel like deserve more recognition than they have? I feel like I always find good movies that not too many people have seen, or even heard of. I was browsing Netflix one day & decided to watch some of the independent movies, a lot were actually really good.

Some movies I feel like deserve more recognition
Geography Club (on netflix)
North Sea Texas (on netflix)
Awake


I know I'm forgetting tons, I'll be sure to edit whenever I remember some :P

Yup. To us non Americans, it shows us a side of the state's that I would have never found if i hadn't watched it, bring another atmosphere different from all these Hollywood movies. The actors play magnificently, and the plot, even though long, is interesting and catching.

Thank you guys for the suggestions! I just finished watching Mud, it was very good, I'm surprised I've never heard about it.

Also, Mike, I watched the first 2 episodes of True Detective & you've got me hooked, lol! I know what my next few days consist of now. :P

Well because I have no life I've been watching Netflix like crazy lately, and I've been mostly watching independent films. Some of my favorites:

Boys Don't Cry
Pulp Fiction
How I Live Now
Blue Valentine
Donnie Darko
The Dynamiter
Mean Creek

[Ben_Frost]

The only ones I can think of right now would be Geography Club, Mysterious Skin, and The Understudy...
