Movies you must watch.

We all have heard of films like the The Godfather, Goodfellas etc. However there are movies that are absolutely brilliant but still do not become part of the popular culture due to a variety of reasons and lack of luck. 

Below, i have listed some of those movies which i feel are still unknown or are not popular to the extent they deserve. The list in no way means that these are the best movies ever produced (though some of them are, in my opinion). Rather, these movies do deserve to be watched at least once.
