Ah yes, you beat me to it.  That's a very lowercase film with a lot of good 
stuff to sample if you're so inclined.  I know they've been mentioned here 
before but The Conversation and Blow Out are two interesting '70s thrillers 
dealing with recording and listening.  Someone recommended Herzog's Aguirre 
but I'd have to throw Heart of Glass out there as his most hypnotic and time 
bending film.  Sargasso Manuscript is another strange film with a nested 
structure of a story within a story within a story...  and it has a great 
soundtrack.

I saw Punch Drunk Love based on Kim's recommendation and thought it was 
great.  How many Adam Sandler movies feature a harmonium as a recurring 
element?

Also I'd like to recommend the Lord of the Rings 4 disc DVD for anyone 
interested in sound design.  There's a great short segment of interviews 
with the sound designers that shows them out recording sounds in the field 
and discussing how they created various sound effects.
