Many popular movies have famous bar scenes from The Shining (The Gold Room) and Star Wars (The Mos Eisley catina) to Pulp Fiction (Jake Rabbit Slims) and Inglorious Basterds (La Louisiane). And several are set in bars including Roadhouse, Barfly, Cocktail, and Coyote Ugly, among others.

Below is a list of 7 great underrated movies about bars and bartenders you probably missed. Not because they aren’t as good as those that won Best Picture Oscars (Lost in Translation, Casablanca) or don’t have as many Hollywood stars (they do!) but because these are independent films that didn’t have blockbuster promotional budgets.

The Drop was James Gandolfini’s last film, he plays an ex-boxer turned bar owner in Brooklyn, with Tom Hardy

In the Weeds (2000) stars Molly Ringwald, Ellen Pompeo, Bridget Moynahan

Hey Bartender, a 2013 documentary about an ex-marine-turned-bartender

To Whom It May Concern stars Wilmer Valderrama as a homeless guy who falls in love with a beautiful bartender

Amelie star Audrey Tautou falls for a bartender in Priceless

In Broken Vows, Wes Bentley (The Hunger Games) is a bartender obsessed with Jamie Alexander (Blindspot)

Steve Buscemi wrote, directed and starred in Trees Lounge, he plays self-destructive alcoholic Tommy
