The prestige - Early Chris Nolan and truly brilliant.

Life is Beautiful by Roberto Benigni

An Italian movie with a mix between comedy and horrible tragedy. It is in many ways a story about finding life beautiful and persevering even in the most terrible circumstances. I think that you will appreciate it

Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (and its sequel, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse)

Memento

Children of Men

Dark Skies

INTERSTELLAR for sure. Watch with good volume :D

Annie Hall
