on the opposite end, pycho is a 1960 movie but it feels to me like the 50s

others:

a hard day's night

Z <-- costa gavras is practically ignored in the US

au hasard balthazar <-- bresson = genius

le mépris <-- fucking fuck!!!!!!!!!!1 the beauty of that film!!!!!!!!!11

faster pussycat! kill! kill!

(you gotta have awesome b movies)

&

branded to kill - b movie or art movie? whatever-- AWESOME

I don't zabriskie point (or some of the others you mention--I'm obviously deprived).

But yeah, A Hard Day's Night is classic. So is Psycho. I wish I could include North by Northwest, but that is sooo 50s. But it ranks right up there at probably # 2 or so, right after The Graduate, among my favorite movies.
