If you loved Beirut, try The Machinist
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Brad Anderson, and they both carry the paranoid, slow burn mood tags, and they sit in Drama / Thriller territory. If that's the register that drew you to Beirut, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The Machinist is
A factory floor at night, machinery hums, a lone lathe operator. Trevor's world shrinks, a mysterious figure appears, always lurking. Brad Anderson's stark realism grounds the paranoia.
