Splendor in the grass.

Nightcrawler

A Plein Temps Kore-eda movies are all about that but in a sweet way - sometimes melancholically so. But they're not focused high-stress kind of tension, but rather prolonged, lingering tension that affect the characters (i.e. much more akin to real-life) Joachim Trier movies are also all about that. Sentimental Value, The Worst Person in the World, Oslo, August 31st. Lars von Trier is also all about that, but in a fucked up way. Closer. Carnage.

Looking at the movies you like I think Tropic Thunder would be good for you. It's a serious drama thriller about the struggles about what it means to be an actor.

I'll recommend **Mud**. https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/mud_2013

Locke: Tom Hardy alone in a car for 85 minutes making phone calls. Sounds boring, is somehow one of the most tense movies I've ever watched； Also Prisoners: if you haven't seen it. Starts as a missing child story and just keeps tightening.

After Hours (1985)

check out "The Night Of" if you haven't seen it, it's got that intense personal drama vibe. also "Marie Antoinette" brings some wild tension in a small scale setting.

Friday, There’s Something About Mary, Just Friends, and Coming to America.
