I'll nominate an underdog: Alphaville.
Basically unknown, jerks you back and forth between genres, simultaneously art house and amateur, and the main character is named Lemmy Caution. Sure he's a government agent, but he's the good guy out to destroy the mind control computer on a distant planet by pitting daughter against father.
Edit: and I forgot to mention it's in French.
This is really cool
Man. I really need to start watching movies from the French New Wave. I knew Alphaville was technically a science fiction story, but I didn't realize how far I to the genre Godard leaned.
