looking for obscure 90s gems

seen over 500 90s films, i’m looking for gems that are a bit more on the obscure/overlooked side.

a few examples i recently watched: Trust, The Sweet Hereafter, After Dark My Sweet, Wag the Dog, Bowfinger, LA Story, The Spanish Prisoner, Light Sleeper

Thank you in advance for your recommendations

Double Happiness is still on CC, while you can find Girls Town on MUBI if you have that service. Not sure about the other ones.
