Well there is a quite big independent movie industry that delivers just that along with movies produced outside of america. You might have to look a bit harder to find it besides the flashy ads for the latest special effects movie.
A personal favourite is Hal Hartleys movies. Most end up with a love/hate relationship to his peculiar style of acting, but its well worth trying if you want something completely different.
I can recomment "Henry Fool" it even ties nicely into this forum as its about a socially inept garbage man that starts writing poetry.
I catch some of that stuff on the Independent Film Channel. Some of it's pretty good.
