The obvious: The Godfather 1 & 2, Taxi Driver, Fight Club, Pulp Fiction, Psycho, American History X... and yes... The Shawshank Redemption isn't bad either.
The less obvious: Missing, Cube, Short Cuts, Lantana, The China Syndrome, Chopper, Bob Roberts (if only for the songs), Memento, Sin City (yeah, some of us actually liked it a lot), Blade Runner. There's heaps of others really, probably some that are better than those mentioned, but they're all great films.
