I'm not gonna try and throw my fave movies on you, cuz I see you're so particular that it's not worth wasting time

In cinema studies, there's a concept of a list of the quintessential movies. They're usually movies made before 2002, are character driven, and lack action in a lot of the film canon theory. They're considered valuable to the history of cinema, but aren't necessarily popular. Stuff that a Film professor might throw on in a college
