Very good movie, but it was a one-timer for me as well. "Scarface" and "The Shawshank Redemption" are in my top 10. Here my list, or at least a quick attempt (in no order):
The Shawshank Redemption
Heat
Man on Fire
Scent of a Woman
Reservoir Dogs
Pulp Fiction
Scarface
Training Day
Fight Club
American Beauty
(Honorable mentions: American History X, The Empire Strikes Back, The Usual Suspects, Powder, Silence of the Lambs)

We have lingered in the chambers of the sea | By sea-girls wreathed with seaweed red and brown | Till human voices wake us, and we drown. — T.S. Eliot
"... man always has to decide for himself in the darkness, that he must want beyond what he knows. ..." — Simone de Beauvoir
"As if that blind rage had washed me clean, rid me of hope; for the first time, in that night alive with signs and stars, I opened myself to the gentle indifference of the world. Finding it so much like myself—so like a brother, really—I felt that I had been happy and that I was happy again." — Albert Camus, "The Stranger"
