Films about oddballs/misfits?

Does anyone have any ideas of good films about people who are 'lost souls' or just out and out don't fit in with society?

I'm thinking films like May and We Need to Talk About Kevin, love both of those so if anybody has any recommendations then I would love to hear them!

Thanks

reading first line you typed about 'lost souls' "the master" came to mind ( http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1560747/ ) now i remember seeing the trailer for "child of god" which seems pretty darn violent may also be of interest to you, don't know if its showing atm tho...

okay ima just toss "frances ha" in the mix. trailer. one of my fav from last year, can really relate to frances at that point in her life!

yea none of these i think are really like may, or talk about kevin flick but may be of interest and all i can think of off top right now... OH even ichi in ichi the killer is definitely a misfit. i feel like i should have a long laundry list of recommendations but im struggling to come out with just a few =/ perhaps some will come to mind later.

Natural Born Killers by Oliver Stone immediately comes to mind.

Badlands by Terrence Malick and The Honeymoon Killers too.

But really there are plenty of other movies that have misfit(s) for a theme.

Do mean like more violent type people or people who just don't fit in socially?

The following are mainly about people who don't fit in socially in some way. I'm sure there's plenty of more. I just looked through a list of movies I've seen in the last few years and wrote down ones that in some way seem to fit your description.

that's what i was going to say, both powerful dramas directed by larry clark

cool runnings

How about anything by larry clark if you dont mind pedophilic undertones mixed in with your oddball/misfit storyline.
