It appears that you enjoy well-acted movies about people with major character flaws that need to be explored and dealt with. That said, I liked the movie called Normal (2003) starring Jessica Lange, Tom Wilkinson, and Hayden Panettiere so much that I bought a copy of it. http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0338290/
Too, most of your movies listed above have male leads. But there are a couple with sole female leads that I could recommend. One is Frozen River (2008) starring Melissa Leo and the other is Julia (2008) starring Tilda Swinton.
