I'm lucky enough to live in a town that has an indie video place, called "The Video Station", which carries hundreds of very old movies, plus PBS movies (I rented "I, Claudius" there), foreign films, etc. We almost never go to Blockbusters.
My picks:
Network (with Faye Dunaway)
As Good As It Gets

One that may be too idiosyncratic for anyone else is "Trembling Before God", about orthodox Jews who discover, with great pain and shame, that they are gay / homosexual / lesbians. I saw it twice, last fall. It is a very beautiful movie -- but I particularly loved the music, because I was married into an orthodox family for 15 years. I would see it again in a heartbeat.
