Thank You for Smoking
Grosse Point Blank
King of California

I know I'm missing some as my brain is in desperate need of coffee.

The Big Lebowski

Goodfellas (old gimmer)

I love Grosse Pointe Blank. It's one of my favourite films.

What about these:
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
Thumbsucker
Donnie Darko
Tillsammans (Together)

im a cyborg but it's ok

i LOVE the film and ordered from play.com before xmas and it never came

I've never heard of that film but have just wiki'ed it for a summary. Wow, it sounds very interesting and definitely quirky!

I love Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind too, Kate Winslet's best film imo.

Grosse Pointe Blank
Stranger Than Paradise
Juno
Kiss Kiss Bang Bang
Mars Attacks
Galaxy Quest

Loads more I'm sure

It's the wierdest film i've ever seen but bloody amazing! Donnie darko is a good one too, i also quite like big fish

I love quirky, my fav's are:

Napoleon Dynamite
Juno
Little Miss Sunshine
Happy go Lucky

Just watched a new one called Adventureland which was really good.

Ferris Bueller.

Belle Ville rendezvouz

Ooh, I definitely agree about "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind" and "Amelie". And "Little Miss Sunshine". Fantastic films, all. Can I throw in:

I Huckabees
Dogma
Fight Club

Delicatessen
The Big Lebowski
Grosse Pointe Blank
Betty Blue
Jean de Florette
Manon des Sources
Leon

Lars and the Real Girl

wisconsin death trip is very weird not sure if quirky

Drowning By Numbers

Betty Blue
Breakfast On Pluto

knicknack! Thought you were going to pick another name, otherwise v v confusing for everyone as your name is almost mine!

I like lots of these. I would say

Perfume (book even better)

Also any by Tim Burton but especially Edaward Scissorhands.

Also American Beauty, Sliding Doors...I'm probably going to keep popping back to this. I love quirky anything, me!

yes I love Eternal sunshine too.

An oldie but a goodie, and quirky for its day was Billy Liar with Tom Courtney

i am waiting for antichrist from lovefilm
i watched guy ritchie thing t'other night - rock n roller or something...

and inglorious basterds was v. good

A guide to recognising your saints
Spirited Away
The Virgin Suicides
Run Lola Run

Leningrad Cowboys Go America
Saving Grace
How High
Priscilla Queen of the Desert
Nightmare Before Christmas
White Chicks (is that quirky?)

I only like quirky films - never much enjoy the mainstream stuff.

I have a big soft spot for British cinema of the 60s like Billy Liar, A Taste of Honey, Work is a Four Letter Word, Up the Junction, Performance etc. Could watch that stuff day and night.
