Thought provoking movies?

I'm in a weird mood today, and I'm looking for just the right type of movie to fit this mood. What are some thought provoking movies, or just movies that seem to stick with you long after you've finished watching them?

Off the top of my head, three movies that fit the bill for me were:
1. Requiem For a Dream
2. American History X
3. Crash

Any suggestions? (Or we can just talk about the above mentioned movies...I'm bored)

I haven't seen any of those, but I did just see Hope Springs and it was thought provoking about marriages.

If you are wanting a movie to make you go, "hmmm??" watch EraserHead.... that movie is mind boggling and so wierd...lol I don't think I have EVER found one that is as strange as that one. I watched it about 3 yrs ago when my fiance had shown it to me and to this day, I will say, "Yep... it's the wierdest!!"

But out of the movies that you put down, the thing I remember most from American History X is when he kicked that guys teeth into the curb... just gives me chills thinking about it. I can't believe how it ended too. sure did surprise me that's for sure!!
