Any cinephiles here???

How do you find good movies to watch??, something under appreciated or indie. I'm tired of my self proclaimed cinephile friends recommending me the same shit that is actually not as "underrated" as they like to think. I'm looking for smthing straight from the trenches, a hidden gem.
Preferences: absolutely any genre from body horror to slice of life to erotica idgaf doesn't necessarily have to be in english, my brain prefers subtitles.

Also 'A Good Movie To Watch'; Esquire also has great movie reviews, as well as Paste Magazine.

These recommendations of mine (off the top of my head) are underrated, but i wouldn't really call all of them indie or from the trenches, as they clearly had some sort of a decent budget. 1....... reply
