Another pivot: favorite under-the-radar movies and series?

What were some under the radar movies and series you've loved? I don't think I have any series, just because I usually only watch ones that others have suggested, or have caught on. I stumbled on Narcos Mexico and really liked it, especially season 1, but Narcos was already very popular and it was only made because of its' success.

Movies? The aforementioned Jackie Brown, which even though a Tarantino, I feel like didn't get the hype because it was so different for him. Really enjoyed Hell or High Water, Wind River, Winters Bone, Jennifer 8 from many years ago. Not sure any of those are what I'm thinking of as truly "under the radar" but they weren't super big budget or promoted, so a little under the radar.

The wife and I liked Mickey 17.  I fired up Goon the other day.  The wife resurrected the big lebowski recently.

 

WHERE'S THE MONEY LEBOWSKI?

Goon is really underrated. 

Danny Deckchair is great and very few people know it.

Grifters with a totally hot Annete Benning and John Cusack is another

My wife and I really liked this Korean movie Past Lives.

The British movie Secrets and Lies is also excellent.  It’s written by the great Mike Leigh starring one of my fave Brit actors, Timothy Spall.

Hee haw guy was good in that scene.  Shining his pinky ring on that velour shirt before he goes into her room to "collect".
