bladerunner 2049

It’s a futuristic sci fi movie so it might not be what you’re looking for. Loneliness and alienation are central themes, though

I hadn’t thought about it but yeah, that applies to nearly every character in the movie.

Moon is such a fantastic film in its own right. Absolutely shook me when I saw it the first time.

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. Explore how it feels when you deliberately choose to lose a relationship.

Every movie written by Charlie Kaufman has elements of loneliness and they are all excellent

Pi

The main character is an unemployed mathematician with schizoid personality disorder whose social interactions are mostly with his old professor and the people in his apartment building. The movie is a thriller, but the main character’s isolation from the rest of the world is rather stark. This is helped by the fact that it was filmed in high-contrast black and white.
