I restarted my Netflix account. Any recommendations? I like obscure indies, offthewall comedies, foreign films and thrillers. No horror except for Japanese horror flicks. No musicals. I mostly like them all actually.. even the blockbusters. But recommendations, please! :)
I'm watching Garden State (yes, I haven't seen this one yet!) and The Lookout today.

Sounds like we might have movie taste in common (except for thrillers - I am a scaredy cat). Here are some recs:
Harold & Maude (my fave)
Shall We Dance (Japanese version)
Kika (Spanish movie directed by Pedro Almodovar)
All About My Mother (another Almodovar)
Raise the Red Lantern (Chinese, depressing but really good)
Red Firecracker Green Firecracker (Chinese)
Indochine
The Scent of Green Papaya
Annie Hall
Four Rooms -- although I am apparently the only person who liked this movie. It is an off the wall comedy, though.
Station Agent (obscure indie meets semi-off-the wall comedy)
Schultze Gets the Blues (obscure indie)
Donnie Darko
You've probably seen at least some of them already, but hope that provides some new ones for ya!
