20 Overlooked Movies That Are Some of the Best Ever

If you ask somebody what the best movie of all time is, they’re probably going to pick one from a list of about 20 movies. You know the ones. Mostly, they’re Oscar bait, but not always. (Green Book is never going to be anybody’s answer.) It will probably be something you’ve seen, because everybody’s seen it, because it’s considered one of the best movies of all time.

But they might surprise you. The best movie they’ve ever seen might be one you’ve never even heard of. “For me, it’s Memories of Murder,” Redditor cijdl584 told r/Movies. “I watched the film a few years ago and have been obsessed with it ever since (and became a Bong Joon-ho disciple immediately). I think it’s the definition of perfection.”

They then asked, “What is your unconventional pick for greatest movie of all time?” and not a single response proved conventional in the least.
